Tilt Indicator Light Wire - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Got my tilt column installed and now I need to know where to plug the gear indicator light wire into. Any help out there? Would it plug into the cluster feed?

if you look at the fuse panel there is a male terminal that the gray wire plugs onto close to the fuse marked "panel lights". This way the tilt light will dim with the panel lights.

In the pic that is posted, is it the male terminal to the right (between the panel light and cluster feed) or underneath the panel light fuse (the one by the fuel gauge terminal)?

That is the one to plug into.

Ok, I went out and looked. There is already a wire coming off that terminal with a female end spliced into it from the factory that the column wire fits into. Thank you.
