So I'm doing the dash, front pad, windshield project and I found
what looks like a Pulled Broken Wire This is a red wire with a red strip that comes off of the tach. Didn't find any wires broken anywhere  |

The '75 schematic in my Haynes manual has that wire being Red with white stripe and also goes to K3, G1, K16, and K2.
Where: G1 = Fuel gauge K3 = Oil pressure indicator light K16 = Low fuel warning light K2 = Generator charge indicator light (GEN light) Can't tell which one that wire came from. Likely it pulled out of another spade connector. |

Edit duh, can't type fast enough. What he said! ^^^
Is not that wire spliced off from the #11 terminal on the tach? If so, it's 12V power. Ck all your gauges and find out who's missing a 12V power source. Anything not working? My electrical diagrams show that wires is spliced into the following: - #11 on the tach - power for the oil pressure indicator light - power for the fuel gauge - power for the low fuel light - power for the gen charge light |

 It has all 5 of the connections. Starting at 6, then goes to 7, then to 8, then to 2, and then to the tach at 11, The chart above shows 2 red wires for 6,7,2 but not 8 and 11. Since I can't find any other connection that is missing a wire or sign of a torn wire so I think I will cap it off and put it back together and see if anything is not working. Thanks for your input !! |
