Hazard switch wiring

Post by FlyingToaster »

Hello. The previous owner of my '72 removed the center console and tossed it along with the hazard switch. I've since picked up a new switch and wiring diagrams for the car. My problem is, the diagrams don't show what wire goes where on the switch. I understand there are 5 wires that go to it, but there are 8 prongs on the switch and labeled with letters.
If someone could post a pic of the backside of their connected switch so that I could see what wire goes where on the switch that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Are you sure you have the right year switch. I think the 72 has a six prong switch. I might be wrong. Is the switch round, square or more rectangular with the word hazard on it. The older switches should be more rectangular with hazard written on it.
Buon giro a tutti! - enjoy the ride!

I assume I have the right one. I just purchased it new from autoricambi, got the one listed for my year. I just assume the other leads don't get used.
Eternally grateful if someone could pop their switch out and take a few pics so I could see what color wire goes where.
Have a good holiday all.

I had the same problem when I ordered the new switch. Luckily, I ran into Csaba Vandor at the 2014 FFO, and he talked me through part of the solution.

Hope this helps.....
