Default 1969 Corvette Instrument Panel

I have a printed circuit connection for the Seat belt light on the back of the instrument Panel (upper right looking at the back) but can't find a wiring connection/connector to it. It does appear to be a straight plug in like the other panel lights. I don't see the connection/connector in any of my 3 repair panels. Any suggestions would be great especially a picture and a part number. Thanks, Ed Frye

Hi, There is no wiring to the seat belt warning lamp.

It is a "dumb" reminder light. Comes on when you turn on the ignition and stays on until you push the button just below it on the front of the instrument panel. Does that help or perhaps I don't understand the question?


Joe

PS: The warning light fits into a holder like this which is then installed on the printed circuit board. http://www.ecklerscorvette.com/corve...1968-1982.html

PPS: I can take photos if you need 'em

Joe, I've taken pictures of the instrument panel back,front and with back cover removed. I'll post them but I'm trying to figure out how I add text to the page when using photobucket. I'd like to add a little text to each of the pictures. In any case I'll post them within 24 hours. AND I repeat, thanks for your quick answer to my original question. How in the world did you ever learn this?
