Dome light timer 1977 corvette
It Appears that I will not be able to find a replacement for my 1977 dome light timer. Does anyone know how to jump past the old timer.

On a 1977 it is not a round cylinder it is a black plastic box with orange white and a blue wire. 77 is the only year they used this relay.
thanks

Hi, may be on your 77 but my early model it's a round cylinder relay, they did change quite a bit from early 77 to the later models in the same year!

If it's the square relay, you jump the two white wires where the relay plugs in.
