69 Parking Brake Warning Light
« on: March, 18, 2011, 05:20:22 PM »
My 69 vert has the visibility group option, which includes the parking brake warning light down by the ign switch. The light has 2 wires, one goes to the parking brake, the other a bullet connector. I can't for the life of me find the mate for the bullet. I feel like an idiot because the harness is original and has never been out of the car. The light worked ok, so I know the answer is there somewhere. If anybody has this option, please tell me where the bullet connector goes. I assume switched 12V is needed, but the thought of hacking a harness that already has the correct solution somewhere is just wrong.

I should probably add that I have the shop manual, assembly manual, and colorized wiring diagram CD and none of them show this option!

My documentation for the Cougar shows a bullet connector coming from the light to the yellow three-prong female connector (ACC power).  I believe that is also correct for the Mustang.  The other wire from the light goes to the parking brake switch itself.

I have that option on mine and it is functioning. I'll go look and snap a pic.

Plugs into a yellow 3 pin connector right above bracket that column bolts to. I got some pics but they suck. I'll try to get one with phone.

Thanks guys, I know exactly which connector you're talking about! Another reason to document everything before you take it apart.
