Default Bracket?

This bracket is on the forward bulkhead of the jack compartment.


I know some kind of relay attaches to it, but can't find out what one.

And....does anything else attach to the bracket?

Anyone?

Thanks

Russ

Going by memory which isn't great, I think it is the flasher for the alarm horn. Have someone else confirm this.

Yep. Clip is for the flasher and there will be a relay to mount next to it.

Thanks guys!

Looked in the AIM but wasn't able to find anything.

There is a round "Heavy Duty Flasher" hooked up next to the center compartment light.

Guess the PO didn't like the alarm, cuz the alarm horn is missing also.

Thanks

Hi Russ,
The alarm sheets are hard to find in the AIM because they're in the back with the other options through 1971….. when the alarm was still an option….. maybe stayed there (?) when it became standard equipment in 72.
Look for UA6.
Regards,
Alan

Now that I look at the sheet Alan pointed me to, I now see how things are supposed to be.

I have the flasher but missing the relay.

The AIM is a great thing to have....as long as you can find what you are looking for!
