69 Camaro Wiring Harness Confusion
 

I have this NOS engine wiring harness that is supposed to be for a V8 without gauges. The assembly manual does not list a large pink wire that appears to be for a temp sending unit. The reproduction harness does not have the pink wire. Also, the temp sending wire is supposed to be in the front lamp harness.

So, what is this pink wire?

Possibly for an idle stop solenoid.

Is there a black stipe on it? May be connected to the horn relay ... TAZ

Can't tell from your pic, but looks to be in the position the purple starter wire should be.



Is there a large purple wire just below that one?

Yes

That makes sense.

OK. So would a 307, 4 speed with factory air conditioning get an idle stop switch?

Believe so -- when the A/C cpmpressor kicked on the solenoid would kick the throttle ... some were on the same circuit ...

I think that is what you're asking ... TAZ

I will check the assembly manual tomorrow. If it was an A/C specific thing it should be under the C60 section.

All the later harness came with that Idle stop solenoid wire. Just cut it off if not needed.

Agree, the service replacements may have all been made this way.
Geeez, did I just agree with Charley :smirk:
