Just picked up Hook on the cheap. Got it up an running with a few new connectors and fuses, everything works but the lights in the backbox. The flashers in the back box do work though. Any ideas on where to start would be appreciated.
My friend has a HOOK on location at a drive-in theater 25 miles from me. I replaced ALL the general illumination connectors in the backbox then we relamped the entire machine with LED bulbs. Sure is bright now and all the lighting connectors run alot cooler now.
From what I can remember (it was several months ago I did this), there was a bad "in-line" molex connector for just the backbox general lighting. I had to replace the male and female halves of connector because they were burnt to a crisp. I also had to replace the male header and the female harness connector for the general lighting on the aux power driver board because that connector was burnt too.
