1968-9 ignition

Post by dodgydan »

does anyone have a 68-69 ignition switch pin out diagram? I have a cut 68 harness (no plug) and I do not have an early style ign. switch to pin out myself. I will prob. install one of my later ign. switches but I believe these are pinned differently. we installed the later style steering column in my sons car so the later style switch will be easiest to install.
thanks.

I have a '69 diagram in the garage I can get to if the above doesn't help.

thanks. I did look at those, and also traced my wiring. what im looking for is the pin out of the early style ignition switch,
ie: what terminal is connected to what. in each of the key positions.
like this but for the early switch with correct wire colours.

Right here in your very own thread, I just blew it up a bit. Originally from UK Haynes:
