The lighter was missing in my 66 C10 so I ordered a new one from Brothers. I looked in my '63 shop manual (don't have the '66 suplement), but I can't find anything on the lighter wiring. New new lighter comes with black and white wires. The white wire is pluged into a connector on the outside of the lighter barrel. The black wire connects to the center connector on the barrel. At the other end there is a plastic connector on the black wire. The white wire has 2 connectors; one on the end and the other about 2" back from the end connector.
Where do these 3 connections on the ends go??
Also on the outside of the lighter barrel is a spade terminal that looks like its for a ground. Does this need to be connected to ground somewhere?
It seems like there are as many as 4 connections to hook up the lighter - jeez, I didn't think a lighter would be so complicated.
Last question - the lighter came with 3 spring clips that I guess are used to lock the lighter into place in the dash. How do these work?
Of course there were no directions included with the new lighter....
Help!
Thanks,
Steve
