Hi all!,
I'm working on tidying the wiring in the dashboard of my '68 Newport.
All the wires are exactly like in my FSM , except for one unknown wire...
My '68 Newport has basic A/C from factory.
I've added a picture from my '68 Newport FSM.
It doesn't have the dual blower motor or the roof mounted A/C.
For some reason it doesn't have the 16LGN wire (noted with red). Looks to be from factory.
And the 16DBL and 14T wires are connected to eachother (noted with yellow). Which was done later.
Does anyone know why i'm missing the LGN wire and why the T and DBL wires are connected?
I've tried to take some pictures but it's pretty hard to get a clear image. Hopefully it helps.
Fan switch connectors has 1 LGN, 1 DGN and 2 TAN wires. One of the TAN wires looks to be cut and reconnected with a yellow wire crimper going to a black wire.
Here you can see the black wire from the yellow crimper, looping around the vacuum lines and going to the left (in the picture)
The black wire continues here and connects to the DBL wire. This wire is going to the A/C clutch and Time Relay. Looks like this wire was cut in two and reconnected like the TAN wire also.
Is there a reason for this?
Hopefully someone can help me with this.
