Wiring Schematic?
Post by dummy on Jul 8, 2006, 6:57pm

Trying to get my '68 M715 operational by next week. In other words, undoing all the bad stuff the previous owner hacked up.

There are a number of wires dangling under the hood and inside the cab. The turn signal switch has been removed. Looks like it's the solid state one. Not sure what it originally went to. Also, can't get the brake lights to work either, but I haven't spent much time troubleshooting them yet. Is there a link to a wiring schematic that lists what the aluminum tags on the factory connectors correspond to? Here's what's dangling:
Underhood -
K- left rear turn signal
E- right rear turn signal
J - right front turn signal
L- left front turn signal
B- brake light signal from switch
19-
36-
33-
468-

In cab -
33-

Anybody know what I'm looking at? In the past week I've basically had to install, replace, or rebuild everything except the transmission and the body. Need to get this thing going by 7/17 so I can drive it from LA to Colorado for Jp Mag.

Thanks,

Christian

Oh, man. That is perfect. Saves me a lot of time tracing.

Thanks very much.

Also remember this one golden rule about MVs. GOOD GROUND!
Make sure all your lights and circuts that have a ground side are grounded good. A zap with a sander or grinder to get bare metal, then a good external tooth lock washer, tighten up then a shot of paint to cover the bare metal will do wonders for your system.

Great links. All are very much appreciated. I've bookmarked the online manuals link. Very helpful. Gotta go to the office today, but tomorrow I'm gonna finish up the little stuff on the engine install and then get to the wiring.
