Greetings all,
I'm in the dark, literally, on this one. My '68 122 (2dr.) has a relay, P/N 85621 mounted on the firewall hump next to the serial number plate. I've been told '68 was the first year to use a headlight relay. My Haynes manual has not been much help. The relay is rectangular, approx 2 inches long by 1&1/2 inches tall. Unfortunately all the wires to the relay are missing. It has a total of 4 terminals, (2 on the inboard end, one on the front, and one on the other end). I presume these need to be connected to the fuse box, but don't know to which terminals. I don't want to fool around and fry something. All the other electrical stuff works, (horn, wipers, fan/blower, etc.) If anyone has a '68 with the same relay set-up can you please tell me how to wire it up? Or email a photo to me directly at blangdon@gvtc.com. I still haven't figured out how to post or view photos on Brickboard. Thanks guys,
