The wiring diagram in the Haynes Manual does not match what I have coming out the door. I also checked Jeff Bowlsby's site.
Which wires go where:  |

Those are definitely the wires and a switch from a 71....I know because mine is like that.
Tbrown4x4 has got you on the right track. One set of wires runs the interior light and the other the key in the ignition buzzer. Buzzer relay is on the fuse panel under the dash. Get yourself a 71 wiring diagram if you don't get anywhere with the above suggestinosand start identifying and tracing the wires. You'll narrow down the issue pretty quickly. BTW, I had to install a new ignition switch and it didn't have the provision (wire) for activating the key in the ignition buzzer....so no buzzer for me. Also....you need to continuity check your 4 pole door switches as many of these are defective after all this time....they just wear out, etc. Often tough to find functioning ones as they are not available new any more. |
