Need help with Streetsweeper HLF on 91 Crown Vic CHP

[Hartge330Ci]

Hoping someone can help. I know the wiring schematics for the actual Streetsweeper HLF, but I do not know where and how to cut into the high beam wires on the 91 CHP Crown Vic I am rebuilding. I found a green/black wire that looks to have been severed by CHP and reconnected, but when I properly hook up the streetsweeper at that spot, only the driver side flashes and it flashes both high and low beam together.

What color is the Interior on your 91?

i dont know about the streetsweeper, but the green/black wire must be cut between the left & right headlights. It looks like you found the loaction of the previous cut. The two power out wires coming out of the most flasher units are yellow & blue. one wire( blue) goes to one side of the green/black wire the other one(yellow) goes to the other side of the green/black wire.

Please post a link to pics. I have a '91 CV that served with Brentwood, CA PD up near Stockton and upon retirement was picked up by Cinema Vehicle Services for a stint in the movies and television. I can see my car on the big screen!! (well, 27" screen at least) :)

351W 7200VV 2bbl white with tan, now b/w. Plans are to go back to original white.

Good luck with your restoration.

I too would like to see pics:)
My dad has a 91 that went to Mt. Shasta PD in CA after its CHP life. It still has some of its original equipment too.

I figured it out. The streetsweeper I had was broken. A few pics below.

Nice car and streetsweeper install but it looks like the rear red deck light should be flashing too no?

[mac88chp]

You cleaned that Vic up nicely. The correct rear deck light patterns should be amber/blue alternating flash or red/blue alternating flash only.

mac88chp: I've heard it both ways. The way you say and the way I have it. How would I wire it the way you said it should be. Currently I have amber/blue on a flasher and red is on another direct wire switch.

Because you're not running your lighting through the Rangr control head, you'll have to find someone with the wiring know-how help you sort it out. In the meanwhile, you can just switch the red off when you're running the amber/blue.

This is my dads car. Needs work but it is a real CHP:)
