I think I've traced a battery drain back to an aftermarket clock on my '74 2.0. The clock is 90% stock looking, fits very nicely in the original console location and keeps great time, so I want to keep it installed and connected
The electrical schematics appear to show the black power lead to the clock coming from the seat belt/buzzer box under the passenger seat. Can I simply run a new wire from there to the clock? Or is there more to it?? Paul |

Run it from the fuse panel .... non-switched power.
Must be one hell of a clock to drain your battery. |
