1967 headlight harness connection
« on: May 10, 2021, 10:28:32 AM »
Please help. I tried the 1967 section, but no response yet. Thought I'd try here.
There are 3 plugs on the dash side of the harness but I cannot find any diagrams as to where they plug. Help please?

Saw you post in the other section.

Do you have/have you looked at the wiring diagrams in the shop Manual?  (if not suggest you get one, they are very helpful)

Can you define (post) the colors(s) of the wires on the three connectors?  Cannot tell from the one photo you posted.

Have to go work, but here is the pages from the shop manual, I find two of the three you posted - blue 3-wire and red four wire, not sure about the 3rd (black connector).

Did you not mark these when you took them apart?
Is this from another car that you're adapting?

Found them! Under the dash next to the fresh air inlet.

  And, notice that they are color coded.  Impossible to connect to any other item under there except the corresponding color coded one.
  Word of caution:  Be carful how you lay the instrument cluster in the opening.  You can short the wires from the alternator to the ground and melt the harness.
