The diagram specifies a 220pF Capacitor and that is likely a misprint.

I figured since Radio Shack is gone, I would just try to find the diode and capacitors listed in the diagram. After much frustration, I reread the entire thread and realized I had bought tiny 220pF capacitors. I hunted down a 220uF capacitor and guess what? Worked like a charm. Thanks mucho AMC Jeep and everybody else. It is pretty gratifying to be told you can't do something, and then figure out how to do it. I love the forums for showing solutions to almost anything, if you look hard enough. I go down a dark road now, flip my high beams on, and with the Side Shooters lighting up, I giggle a little almost every time. |
