As a retired marine electrician I really appreciate watching somebody who knows what they're doing and is happy to teach others. Now, if only they will listen.

A HEAT SHRINK LABEL MAKER?! WHERE HAS THAT BEEN MY WHOLE LIFE>!>?!

Bonus tip, heatshrink the ends of the nylon cable braid. This way it doesn't roll back and expose the wires, looks neat too! Also let's you label a bundle of wires like "Left headlight" or "Flux capacitor" :D
-
This is like the “casually explained” version of car wiring and I love it
-
one thing i’d add, when you’re at the “how long does each wire need to be?” stage, it really helps to use bits of cheap rope and tape to find the routes that will determine the length, shape and look of the finished harness.

this video is great, the presenting was spot on

I run all the electronics on singer Porsches for a living and I love this video. it's got an amazing collection of information with a good sense of humor to help beginners get over the hill on learning how to wire up a car which I know from personal experience, is a huge challenge to overcome. Keep it coming! P.s. just as a side note, please please use something like DR-25 heart shrink and SCL/ ATUM adhesive heat shrinks in the engine bay for any engine bay harnesses that you plan to compete with and keep in the car for any extended duration as oils and heat can and will melt those wires and short them out over time. (Bonus points if you use tefzel wire too lmao)

2:25: 'The Holy Trifecta', love it 😂- Taz

The best part is that I am never going to do it, yet I am watching it, liked it and subscribed for long. :D
-
"Is this a crack lighter?" LMFAO I came to the right channel.
-
Tip for making heat shrink labels hold up better over time is to use transparent heat shrink on top. A bit more work but totally worth it.
-
You would think someone like myself who is an avid lover of heat shrink and label making would know about heat shrink for label makers. I slapped my spacebar so hard and immediately bought some. This is a game-changer haha. Keep up the super informative content!

Helpful tip with the Costco size bags of Zip-Ties is to rip the hole you pull them out of in the center of the bag instead of just ripping off the corner. That way they stay in during transport, and are still easy to pull out of the bag. Stupid little things that make a huge difference in your sanity.

You sir have won the internet for me today. Randomly found you when looking for wiring harness in a car and I must say kudos to you for sharing these golden nuggets of wisdom in such a comprehensible way. Your subtle humor is through the roof and that makes learning much more enjoyable. Thank you so so much for making such quality videos! Immediately earned my subscription.

Its past midnight, I'm not a car guy, I know almost nothing about electronics, and yet I was captivated with the entire video. Congratulations good sir.
-
I am completely rewiring my 66 GTO and have watched many videos about wiring and electrical systems. This is, by far, the best one. Thank you!
-
So much good information here: before this video I did not know that heat shrink tubing label maker cartridges and SXL wire were a thing, and those aftermarket fuse boxes are great! Now have to go buy some stuff!

Been a master auto technician, for most of my adult life. Found this very informative. Learned the most at the Chrysler factory schools. Loved the way they drew out their wiring diagrams. I straddle the fence between modern fleet vehicles and antique/classics. This info will come in handy, for both.

This. This is the video I've been looking for - I can diagnose car wiring, I've done most jobs on a car, and I've rewired entire buildings but there was something about rewiring a car that just seemed overwhelming and everytime I come close to going for it I get cold feet. Great video, I'm feeling much more confident and prepared - and it's great to have a list of well reviewed components
