[DeTomaso] red wire

[SOBill at aol.com]

Todd,
 
I take it that have a very early car. If this is correct, here is  where I 
think your wires go:
 
Fuse #12: 1 Red wire to the Hazard Warning Switch and 1 Red  wire to the 
turn signal indicator lamp in the tach.
 
Fuse #7: 1 Red wire to the Horn relay and 1 Red wire to the AC  condenser 
fan relay. When the AC condenser relay is closed, the power on the Red  wire 
is routed to the AC Condenser Fan. If the AC condenser fan relay has failed  
in the activated position, you could very well measure 0.8 ohms to ground  
because you will be looking into the condenser fan armature windings. 
Disconnect  the condenser fan motor at the motor and see if the 0.8 ohms goes  
away.
 
What Fuse blew?
 
I can't tell you where the condenser fan relay is located on  early cars. 
Perhaps someone on the forum can tell us both where all three of the  AC 
related relays are located on early cars?
 
Have fun  today,

I  have 4 red wires coming out of the fuse block. 2x 16 gage wires are tied 
 together and go to the turn and hazard ( not this one) 1x 14 gage red wire 
 that goes to horn and key buzzer ( not this one also) So I have one 16 
gage  wire that I can not find where it goes- all system working that I can 
find.  and this just happened last night I saw a flash (blown fuse) and now the 
red  wire shows .08 ohm to ground. where do you think I need to look next?
