Mystery connector on 75 Imperial with many wires.

[Mbaird]

I found this massive connector floating under dash pad when I was changing cluster bulbs. I can’t find it in my 76 FSM . My car is a 75 but most of the wiring should be similar.
There are some 16ga hot wires and grounds . Maybe for trailer towing ? Seems to be a lot of wires for that…
None of my warning buzzers work so at first I thought it might be for that but cant find a matching male connector . It comes from the drivers side cluster area and runs over to passenger side .

Looks to be it . Wiring must be unique to 74/75 Imperial. I am not finding any mention of it in my 76 Chrysler FSM . My car has the Sentinel system … where is the male connector ???
Hmmm. Will have to look once I have the cluster out . Pretty big terminal to hide .

Correct- Option L41 Safeguard Sentinel was one of the things that no longer was available after the Imperial line was dropped.

Question still remains
“ where is the rest of the wiring ?” I will try to find a 75 FSM on line .

If I'm reading the diagrams correctly, that IS the rest of the wiring.

Got mine from rockauto, CD with pdfs of body and chassis service manuals.

I believe that is the connector TO the amplifier.

I believe that is the connector TO the amplifier.

Fair enough

What I meant to say was, there is no more wiring after this connector.

Yes , I.understood what you were saying. I didnt occure to me that there was a module involved in the system until then .
I wonder if removing the module effected other things like dash lights or cornering lights ? None of which work now . I bought an NOS light switch with sentinel provisions thinking it was the switch effecting my dash lights

 

[thethee]

Cornering lights are not affected by this module and neither are the dash lights. Cornering lights are powered by fuse #8 and only go through turn signal switch. Dash lights are powered by fuse #1 and only go through headlight switch.

Best to check fuses and connectors

 

[thethee]

Dash lights are probably caused by a failed rheostat in the headlight switch. The dimmer part.
