Where does inspection light plug in?


Recommended Posts

What wire near the radiator does the engine bay light plug into? Does that wire come from the engine bay harness or is it a separate wire? I don't see a spare wire near the radiator to plug the inspection light into on my car. The 72 FSM (I actually have a 1970 car) shows the inspection light red/blue wire going to the fusebox and changing from red/blue to green/blue as it nears the fusebox. Thanks for any info.

Mike,

You should have a single wire about 15" long with a female bullet connector coming from the engine bay harness just before it goes forward thru the radiator bulkhead for the lights. My wire has a black protective cover so I can't see the actual wire color. Hope this helps.

Jim, and 240dkw,

Thanks very much for the information. I will look again with daylight, other stronger lighting and a mirror to see the back of the wiring harness but I don't see a wire in that area. I tried feeling the backside of the electrical harness but couldn't feel a stub where someone might have cut off a wire. I will put a wire tracker on the fuse that feeds that light to see if I can track it down that way. If I can't find the wire I will run a new one.

Thanks for the info that helped a lot.

Mike
