12/71 dash wiring ?

I took a quick look at the wiring diagram and didn't see exactly those wires, but I'm wondering if that connector with the Green and Black/White was for something for an automatic transmission. Is (or was) the car an auto? Reason I ask is there are two devices at the top center of the wiring diagram... "Kick Down Switch" and "Kick Down Solenoid" that have at least one of the wire colors correct.

And as for the large White/Red, I'm thinking that comes from the alternator?

I would tend to agree with Chris' answer. All of the FSM wiring diagrams I have show the BW wire branching off before the fusebox, going through an inline fuse and coming out of the fuse as a green wire. The green wire goes to the fuel pump.

I see the fuel pump wiring you guys are talking about... So you're thinking that what gets plugged into that two position connector is some sort of 20A fuse module? Did they do such a thing on the early models? I have no hands on experience on stuff that early.

I was looking at the wires leading to the Kick Down solenoid... One side of that solenoid connects to a wire who's color is inconclusive, but probably G or B/W. It looks like one of those wires that changes colors in a junction somewhere and you don't know which color won the fight. And the wire color on the other side of that solenoid isn't labeled at all, so it could very well be the other color.. Haha! So I'm just fishing for possibilities and the documentation doesn't rule it out.  ;)
