@kent_goins  In the service manual they show the Title Light and overhead Console as one.   :notsure:

That would make a lot of sense!  Either the Ask Tray or the Glove box light?   :thinking:

I think it is the ash tray light.


kent_goins

nope...keep looking. Those are a different circuit

kent_goins

by the way...if anyone has the circuit diagram for the seat belt warning light/system...let me know.

The overhead console seatbelt circuit is the G10-18Y on that A01 diagram...The seatbelt warning light times out{from the time delay relay} after the door is closed along with the other connected circuits{title lamps and ignition illumination}....Ash tray and glove box would be coming off the X1A-18P circuit at the relay...It's been a while I'm still looking myself....So how long is this yellow wire in question ???

the mystery yellow wire with light stretches from the map light switch area to the far drivers side

In 1970 wouldn't that be part of the Overhead Console?

I do think it is the console light possibly. But when you say overhead console...I think of the SE model. What is the overhead console? It also appears in your latest wiring diagram that it is the floor console illumination. I need pictures of the actual car with this light shown and its location

Kent, do you have an overhead console ???? What about deluxe seatbelts ??? There was a dash mounted seatbelt light for the deluxe seatbelts that would also be on the time delay circuit...{this pic shows a reverse light for a manual trans and the deluxe seatbelt warning light}   Keep in mind that A01 diagram probably covers all options and some vehicles won't have EVERY lead depending on how the car was optioned...That's why you're not finding them in the FSM... How about a pic of the wire and light socket assembly  in question ???


kent_goins

yes I have both these light just as shown. the car is not an SE and thus does not have the overhead console. We did not have deluxe seatbelts with the car although it may have had them originally. Seat belts are also a mystery. If I have this seat belt light...then I guess I need to find some deluxe seat belts :(
The console light is my main concern. Where that crazy light is supposed to go.

Console light is for Floor Shift Auto's only.  Do you have a 4 speed?  Then you would not have that Console light.  It's long orange wire with a bulb socket on the end and a bullet plug on the other end.

A photo of the wire in question would help.   :twothumbsup:

I have an SE that is apart.  I can check the wiring in the morning. When I used to drive the car the low fuel warning light would come on and off when fuel was low. Maybe it is on the time delay so it doesn't burn out the lens. My seatbelt warning light stayed on and burnt the lens.
