I'm in the depths of a full dash replacement and I'm need to figure out a situation.
I have a couple things to address. FUSE 11 (Hazard / Interior Light) has never worked-dead short immediately. I thought I remember someone saying that I need to look at the ground under the passenger seat and the passenger door switch as possible issues there. But I also have a some weirdness with the Hazard too... There is a new square relay installed and some wires cut in from the factory hazard switcher. The turn signals are all working, but I need to get the hazards operational. And on top of that, I discovered this red wire, long melted...will splice in a new wire, but thought the group might be able to point me in a direction. I know I have a color wiring chart...off to the archives for it to start looking for things. |

Mine is a 71. I don't know if there are a lot of difference> The multi-pin plug supports the ignition now. Looks factory and I'm not seeing any splices. It "slots" into a place on the inside of the lower dash. I can't find it here either.... I am going through a similar problem. The problem with the wiring diagrams is that they don't show the two sides of the 12 pin connectors and how the wires connect to them. The colors coming out of the ignition switch wiring and turn signal switch wiring on the early cars (1970-1971) are NOT the same on both ends of the 12-pin connector! Porsche used one set of colors on the female side wiring and another set of colors on the male side wiring of the connector. That must be why the posts were numbered on the 12-post connectors. It makes for very frustrating trouble-shooting. |
