What do these go to. This car is a '73 which was originally a 1.7. I thought it was for the blower but it's not. It's the green and brown wires w/ the blue tape and comes off the small black harness that the coil wires come out of also.
Another shot showing the black harness from whence it comes. |

No, that is really great info. I just came in from tinkering with it. When I jumped 10 & 11 I used a very small jumper. Duh. I heard the fan motor dragging and saw smoke from the "small" jumper which couldn't handle the load. The plug doe not have pins in those 2 spots so I'm going to need 2 pins so I can make a jumper, I think. I say I think because I haven't jumped this with a large enough gage wire. So, those two wires with the blue tape would have plugged onto the coil if in an earlier version? They're certainly the right length to connect there as well.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) They would have plugged into your blower motor. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) apparently i misread this The blower on my '72 is powered by a green wire that originates from #11 at the 12 pin connecter at the regulator plate. the wires branch from that harness coincident with the supply wires to coil terminals #1 and 15. |

Sorry for confusing you. On the early harness the blower wires branch off from that harness at approx the same place as do the coil wires, eg, the blower and coil wires are "coincident" -- not the best use of that word, but i was using my telephone and trying to be terse. The error was mine. So, those two wires with the blue tape would have plugged onto the coil if in an earlier version? They're certainly the right length to connect there as well. Say what?
