914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Heater blower wire on a 76

Posted by: markb Jun 21 2010, 04:59 PM

OK gang, I need some help here. IIRC from my 1.7 Djet in the 72, the heater blower wire was in the harness on the drivers side. I recently transplanted a 76 2.0 Djet motor into the car and don't seem to have that wire. I realize the blower was mounted differently in 76, but where is the wire? Do I need to run one from the relay board?

Early cars had the heater blower wires going through the relay board and then going into the engine harness ...

Later cars have the heater blower wires exit the main harness before the relay board ...

Solid green wire ...

On early cars, goes from Pin 10 on the rear connector into the engine harness.

On late cars, Pin 10 is jumped to Pin 11 on the rear connector and the green wire comes out of the main harness before the relay board.

On your '72 you will need to remove the '76 'jumper' in the engine harness and run a (green!) wire from Pin 10 to the heater blower.

Unbolt the lever and make sure the contact is not shorting out ...
