Default 1971 wiring diagram

Is some able to help me out with a wiring diagram. I need it for the wiper wiring mainly. If any one can it would be a great help.

What do you mean by mainly? The wiper motor's main power is switched in two places-under the dash and by the switch near the vacuum canister for the wiper door.

You can get a nice large color wiring diagram from vetsvette202@yahoo.com for $25 + $12 UPS shipping. Also, call doc rebuild and buy their similar diagram that includes pictures of the connectors. When tracing out wiring, you need all the guns you can buy.

The AIM (Assembly Instruction Manual, available from most Corvette parts vendors) for your car will show the routing of the various harnesses.

I have compared the jpeg posted by Hamad to a real Corvette wiring harness, and they are nowheres near the same; not even close. This colored in assembly manual copy has at least 12 errors that range from the wrong wire in the wrong connectors hole; to the wrong color and number of wires in a hole; to the wrong origin and termination. Read about them in this technical breakdown on the NCRS org venue. http://www.ncrs.org/forum/tech.cgi/read/frames/292057
I deal in facts, not gossip. Corvette weren’t built that way - ever.

Yes you are right, I just examined and compared it to my '71 and found 3 errors right away!

I apologize for that, I have used it for restoring my A/C and it was correct for that part.

Also, if the wiring diagram posted above is someone else's product that's for sale, then it's really not cool (or legal) to post a free copy of it here, even if you're only posting a portion of it.

C'mon Jason, spring for the real deal - they're not expensive and a wiring diagram is basic documentation that every Corvette owner should have.

I did that simply because I saw a lot of posts containing pictures of book pages for declaration purposes. It has alot of errors originally anyway! I just deleted it.
