Re: Color Wiring Diagram FINISHED
most of the ones I've installed were 21 but get what fits your project and think ahead of what you might do in the future.

Re: Color Wiring Diagram FINISHED
Hello,
I'm in need of some help... I have a "67 c10. I am neck deep in a wiring issue. I have head lights, tail lights. Signal lights, and four way flashers. However, when I turn on the headlights, signal right or left, the other side flashes between back-up lights and tail lights. I also have no horn? I have replaced the signal light switch, hoping that was the issue. But.... I know the tail light sockets are rusty, it has a wood bed, and I'm not sure where to find the ground. I can't download the wiring diagrams on my ipad. Any help would be greatly appreciated. S.EllisWoodWorking@Gmail.com Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Color Wiring Diagram FINISHED
franciscocl7, What format is the original diagram in? I'd like to make up a custom diagram to follow for my truck. I have Visio and access to a computer with Illustrator (all of the apps from the current Adobe CSs actually) and Freehand. I also have friends who can convert most CAD formats to something I can modify (I've done that before, and.....well, it's better than starting from scratch--Sometimes).

Re: Color Wiring Diagram FINISHED
Can anyone tell me the size of the wire they are? Like when it says 18 by the name on the diagram is that the size of the wire? If so 20g seems way to large. I'm wanting to rewire the entire truck with just wire (have some custom things I want to do) instead of buying a kit. I just cant find what gauge of wire I'm needing to buy and what gauge goes where. Thanks

Re: Color Wiring Diagram FINISHED
CST10, it sounds like your problem is most likely the light switch. I know it seems unlikely but a lot of circuits run through it. If that's not the problem, your printed circuit may not be connecting to the harness connector well anymore--brittle, cracks, corrosion, whatever.
themikehyde, I haven't run across vacuum hose drawings yet, but there are very few vacuum items compared to most passenger cars. The 6 cyl wiring diagrams are on the first page. Guys, you know what I found out? NONE of the GM diagrams that appear to be useful, show the cig lighter option and what color wire is "factory correct." I only realized a few weeks ago that the INSTALLED cig lighter, is NOT connected in standard/baseline vehicles--only with package upgrades!

CSGAS, All I saw on the pages was links for the v8, not the 6.

I suck at reading wiring diagrams..
Ok guys, I really need your help on this one, because I am going around in circles.
in my 69 c10 I'm putting in a 12 circuit mini set from EZ wiring. everything is labelled, so far so good. But I need to connect it up to my excisting horn/direction connector, that would be that half moon shaped connector dangling underneath my steering column right? If I try to read my wiring diagram, I have no clue whatsoever which wire ends up where. I'm trying to follow the wires through the diagram from the connector down to the horn and/or indicator lights..but I get lost at the fuse panel and at the blockhead connector. So who can tell me which wire does what in the red squared box in the picture. you are also very welcome to tell me what an idiot I am if it's to easy to miss, but I just don't see it. ![]()

Re: I suck at reading wiring diagrams..
document is incomplete at best... i can land all wires except the ones that go off the page directly under the half moon connector
take colored pencils and literally trace each line in a different color...

Re: I suck at reading wiring diagrams..
Try this one.
and here's yours. Ignore the arrows bottom to top. White-brake switch. Dark green -to right rear turn/brake light- goes to the connector in the firewall behind the distributor Yellow- to left rear turn/brake light- goes to the connector in the firewall behind the distributor. Purple - from fuse panel flasher to turn signal switch. Brown- from fuse panel hazard flasher to turn signal switch Dark blue- from turn signal switch to front right signal with a connector wire to the dash cluster for the right signal indicator light. Light blue - from turn signal switch to left front signal light with a connector wire to the dash for the left turn indicator light. The dark blue and light blue wires go from the connector through the firewall wiring block into the engine bay and through the harness to the left and right signal lights. The connector wires join them at the block on the inside of the cab or at the half moon connector. Black- this is the horn relay ground wire from the steering column to the horn relay. What else you got.

Re: I suck at reading wiring diagrams..
thanks for the explenation guys, this is very helpful!
So helpful that I just had a "OMG" moment. the reason why I couldn't follow the wires is because the connectors are mirrored towards each other... I never realised that so thats why the colors where never matching up ![]() So one more question...what are the numbers in front of the colors? so 18 Br of 20 Br etc? ![]()

Yeah got the ditributor figured out, #1 is indeed the plug before the ignition pointer thingy. I still need to put in the rest of the wiring, so I haven't been able to start her up to test. but I hope I'll get that done soon. although I'll be in Poland for the next two weeks for X-Mas.

Re: I suck at reading wiring diagrams..
just confirm my thoughts, i gotta chime in on this one, where does the ground come from in the stock wirng harness? is all the wiring, grounded to the body, which is grounded to the chasis, which is grounded by the battery? thanks in advance, clark.

yes frame, body, motor and all metal items must be grounded... i recommend a ground bus, factory grounds are not enough for me. there are lots of posts that explain grounds.
