It would help get you a clearer answer, Bill, if you told us what year car you have.

the car is a 67 coupe -------- 289 automatic. I would appreciate help. I can't finish laying the carpet. Cheers, Bill Palmer

:bowdown I know the wiring goes under the carpet ......... BUT......... what electrical wire (color) does it connect to, up under the dash??? Thanx, Bill :roll

Blue/red is the wire. Unfortunately, that's the same colored wire as the dash lamps, which only work when the headlight switch is pulled out. There's usually a separate female bullet connector near the gauge firewall plug (64.5-66) or by the fuse box (67/68) that you can use. For 69/70's, it is a large female bullet plug on the engine side of the firewall.

I have a 68 electrical assembly manual and I assume its pretty close to the 67. It shows the automatic transmission indicator light wire plugs into a RED insulated bullet connector that should be near the fuse block and as part of the main harness that comes off the fuse block.

You got it. The wire color should be blue/red.
