Default 1972 Coupe (base engine) fuse panel diagram?

does anyone have a diagram of the fuse panel for a 1972 auto coupe with the base engine? My letters are badly faded from the panel itself and I'd like to troubleshoot some fuses. Looking to find out what each fuse controls and the resistance for each fuse. Thanks

Well, I tried to scan the diagram from repair manual, this is as good as it gets:

From the top left,
The 'first line' reads PWR ACCSY HEATER A/C
next line reads CLK LTR BAT WIPER
then TAIL LPS ACC RADIO TCS
then STOP HAZ IGN DIR SIG BACKUP
then LPS INST LPS GAUGES

Can you hook the power wire on a aftermarket radio to the radio fuse in the 1972 fuse?

If I remember right your red should go to the IGN spade and the yellow goes to the BAT spade.

Hi c,
I believe the headlight circuit is protected by a circuit breaker in the headlight switch.
Regards,
Alan

Does anyone know where the cigarette lighter goes to? I wired my radio to the cig lighter in order to get constant juice. afterwards when I was changing out the power steering pump booster, i shorted something (because I saw a spark) and now no radio or cigarette lighter. All the fuses appear to be fine in the fuse box as well as the radio's fuse. Any thoughts to what is going on?
