What was/is the electrical gremlin? Pretty basic system unless some new harnesses were installed; I had a new one that was made incorrectly.

I have no idea about documentation while Mark owned the car ... I am not even sure if his parents are even alive -- they were in the 50s/60s when Mark had it ... TAZ

THX Taz.

Regarding the electrical gremlins, they still persist. Please see earlier in the posting for details.

OK -- heres what you need to do ... the connector at the base of the column on top, check the wires and match up the colors. I am thinking that if that switch in the column was replaced (or column replaced) and not the right one for a Nova that could be the issue. If colors match up according to the diagram I would say the switch is bad. No hazard/signal lights, no horn all point to the switch. Have you jumped across the horn relay to see if the horns are good?

Hey Taz;

Thanks for the pic of the circuit board. Horn relay itself check out good. If you know it, could you please give me the CORRECT part number for the turn signal wiring harness. I want to verify if I have the right one presently installed.

Did you have a chance to check the connector? I think I have the AC Delco number somewhere.

As near as I can find the GM number is 1893588 and the AC Delco number is D6208. Maybe some of the other members may chime in here if they have different numbers.

Ran out of daylight and Steph, my wife of 43 years, told me it was time to come in (now!).

So, I will check wiring and numbers tomorrow.

Many Thanks for all the great help and

Have a Safe, Sane and Happy Independence Day. Happy Birthday America!!

Obsession can be a terrible thing at times.

If there is a number somewhere on that switch you may be able cross-reference it. You can also disconnect the plug and using the diagram jump wires to see if you get at least turn signal lights in the cluster. That would indicate the rest of the harness is good in the dash. For the lights, 12V comes from the hazard and turn signal flashers. If you cannot discern the color code, let me know and I will see if I can figure it out.

Also, while you’re under the dash, there is a small spade terminal on the side of the cluster next to and slightly below the gas gauge – that is the ground wire to the harness … make sure it is connected securely.

Have A SAFE INDEPENDENCE DAY and listen to your wife-mate ... that Deuce will be there tomorrow!!! TAZ
