<p class="MsoNormal">When the battery voltage dropped from a charged state the Voltage went down which in turn caused the amperage to go up, causing the fusible link in the clock to open.

<b>Subject: </b>[T3] 1971 Relay Kit Revision</p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A few years ago, I designed a kit of 3 relays to be installed in 1971 cars to
<br>
take all the load off the unobtainable 1971 ignition switch. I noticed that my clock didn't seem to be keeping good
<br>
time at all. Only later did I realize that this was because I had wired the clock
<br>
to lose power whenever the key was off.<br>
<br>
There are 3 of you out there who have bought those kits from me. I'd like to <br>
send you instructions for how to fix this problem, along with revised <br>
installation instructions, in case you haven't done the installation yet.<br>
<br>
