Harness Plug

Post by jor »

I just received a harness that I bought. It is supposed to be a 67-72 and looks like it with the exception of the plug that attaches to the instrument cluster. I'm not familiar with this kind and it doesn't match any of my instrument clusters. Here's a photo. Any idea what it fits? Thanks.

Looks like the one in my 71 and also the one in my old 72. It has been a long time sence I had the dash out, but I am pretty sure.

As noted on the Identifying 1967-1972 Ford Pickups tutorial, there are three different styles of instrument panels: '67-'69, '70 (one year only) and '71-'72. The harness plug connector for the '70 board is 1-1/2" wide whereas the connector for the '71-'72 boards are 2-1/4" wide. In addition, the pin-out is different.

Thanks Heep and Keith. I guess it pays to read the tech articles first! I'll do that.
