I'm curios on this one too. I have this setup in my 74 and would like to remove it as there is a fair bit of corrosion on it.

Funny (not ha ha funny) that's what I have been working on this morning, but I see the thread I happened to come across is dead? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

QUOTE(Jeff Bowlsby @ Dec 15 2014, 01:12 PM) QUOTE(ndfrigi @ Dec 15 2014, 11:01 AM) Thanks Mark for starting the thread! So all the wiring connections below the passenger seat are only for door buzzer and seat belt warning? If yes, can we just cut all the wires and make the lower floor clean under passenger seat? Thanks! NNNNOOOOOooooooooOOOooooooOOOOoooO!!!!!!!! Don't cut any wires ever, for any reason, there is never a need, it can cause more problems than it solves and is difficult to repair correctly. Wires under the passenger seat of 1974-76 cars are more than just the door buzzer and seatbelt interlock. The two big yellow wires are the main ignition circuit. Study the schematics to understand the others.

don't it, just make sure that the yellow and yellow with red are connnected together and that the red with black wire to the interior light is well connected and leave it alone. Why chop a factory wiring harness?
QUOTE(euro911 @ Dec 15 2014, 12:24 AM) I'd like to eliminate the electrical relay box and associated wiring that's under the passenger seat. Most of the connections look pretty bad and a PO did bypass some of the connections. I'm never going to restore this car back to stock '75 specs. I think this it's just something that's eventually going to go wrong. Has anyone else eliminated this stuff? ... and how did you do it? |
