63 wiring harness

[Steve D.]

The photo below shows an orange wire with a "j" connection that runs to the passenger side and is of the same length as the passenger side curtesy lamp connection. I can't identify it in the AIM wiring diagram. When I disconnected the old harness, I labeled all of the connections. This same connection was present on the old harness, but my label only had a question mark "?" . Can someone tell me what this connects to. (Non air car with heater and radio.)

Thanks. I haven't installed the GB yet and I forgot all about it.

Steve, as soon as you connect the battery, that wire goes HOT. So place some tape over the end to avoid problem till the glove box goes in. I would think you would connect the battery to do a clock, radio, etc check prior to installing the glove box.

Thanks for the thought. I have had the battery connected numerous times, but have just been lucky that nothing happened. I'll tpe it up.
