It should be on your fusebox panel under the dash. You have to remove the panel to get to it.

can I rejuvenate this thread and ask which one it is? I seem to have no headlights. The lights pop up, I have side markers and rear tails (although they seem to stay on at all times if the key is switched "on"). I also have no emergency flashers or turn signals...........are they all related? I will admit I am an electrical tard. I know how to check for ground and power, check fuses and the like but I can't figure out those damn wire diagrams to save my life.

Actually to far! Seems that a mild touch back in and presto headlights. Still haven't figured out why I have no hazzards, turns, interior fan......fuses are all good. Do they all work off relays? My Haynes manual and owners manual are USELESS! I have some interior gauge backlights (bad bulbs I guess for the others). I'm surprised no one puts out new wire harnesses for these cars. Like a VW bug, seems like such a needed aspect of restoration. I HATE ELECTRIC WORK!!! Give me brakes, suspension....anything mechanical any day over 30 year old wire connections (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |
