Is this routed correctly?
I am talking about the turn signal harness for the tilt column. It doesn't look right and I can't find any posts about the correct routing of this harness.
[ATTACH] Thanks. |

Re: Is this routed correctly?
As long as the wires aren't pinched it should be ok.

Re: Is this routed correctly?
I wouldn't route them they way you did. Mine are routed up through the steering column hole behind the instrument cluster

HO455- the truck is a '68 but the tilt column is a 71 or 72, can't remember which year. It's a true truck tilt though. |

Re: Is this routed correctly?
I just rebuilt my column and redid the turn signal switch on my 68. Now I cant for sure say it had never been touched, but the turn signal switch was as filthy as can be, had the original red style hazard knob broken off and the original half moon connector so I would say it wouldn't be too far fetched to think it could possibly be original (car shows 57K and I have an old title from out of state that seems to support that being true mileage).
Anyhow, my wiring was routed differently then shown, in front of that blue bracket (so in between that bracket and what ends up being the back of the temperature gauge of the cluster), not behind it like you have it. Take it for what it is worth. Also, just because I ran into this same problem and nearly stripped out my threads trying to put it all together- I see that the hole where the front of the parking brake bracket mounts doesn't line up real good and is partially obscured by the hole in the black bracket (which actually mounts to the firewall and the brake cylinder hangs off of)….get a second set of hands and have someone pull the bottom of the dash forward when you go to attach that so that everything lines up and you don't start stripping it (I must have spent an hour on that before figuring that out). |

Yes the dash will move on you when all the bolts are removed. I take a punch and put in one of the bolt holes to move it around to line it back up right. It can be a pain though.

Re: Is this routed correctly?
What I meant is curl the harness before the plate so it rests behind the dash. I would not pinch it between like you have it.
