Power supply to the rear accessories
Posted by PennyPackard On 2024/6/10 17:14:20
Hi all,
I sorted an ignition coil wire short today and while I was contorted under the dash it got me wondering about the vanity lights, cigarette lighter, and switch supplying power to the rear of the passenger compartment. I am still analyzing the wiring diagram, but since none of these things work in my car and I’m not going to rip apart the headliner, I was hoping to disconnect the power and ideally decrease further short risk. There’s this one bigger wire that seems to go up to the rear loom, is that what provides the power to the interior lights etc? I’ve paralleled it with a red line, it also seems someone has put tape on the connector.
Edit: sorry this is a 49 deluxe 2262, no OD/EC
