hi everyone!

i need help with the four wires i have going to the rear of my 62 chevy ice cream truck

i figured out three of the wires, but the fourth is needing some help

i have four wires to the rear

red= right
green= left
black/white tracer parking light

white=????????????????

I need reverse!!!!

the white wire emits from under the dash and is cut there, and it is coming out towards the rear of the stepvan.

i know this is a stepvan!! i just cant find any help with specific wiring

i know that this 62 chevy has a signal stat900 and 54 chevy truck guages and lights.

any help with this white wire would be great or even an idea would help.
thanks

The white wire is used for back up lights. On trailers they generally use it for ground. If you don,t have backup lights disregard it.
Great truck. I have a soft spot for step -vans. I specialized in them for 35 years.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

Jeff,

The wire you ID'd as parking lights...this is 'taillights', right? It sounds like you have some type of instrument to test for voltage.

If the truck has what appears to be backup lights, can you test the white wire for power when the key is on and the rig is put in reverse, or maybe a dash mounted toggle switch is flipped to turn the lights on.

Own a 63 Chevy P-10 ( photobucket.com/63chevy ). I have no thoughts on wiring but would like to at the least extend an offer to connect with fellow owners. My mothership will eventually serve as a food cart, for the time though a rather pleasant project. Peace...
