I have an electric seat from a '69 **** Thunderbird in my '68 Chevy C/10 stepside. Long story. The seat adjust mechanism hasn't worked for a while. The switch is fried. A new switch and pigtail from a later model has the same switch configuration [DPDT rocker/4-way joy toggle/ DPDT rocker.] The scarey thing is the wires on the '69 are color coded the opposite from what I assume is off a '73 (or '83?). Red wires and yellow wires on the pigtail are reversed. Where would I go for **** schematics of this vintage?

Check your local library, they should have books on the wiring diagrams smile


There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.

Thanks. Today, I did get the seat partially working again. Dropped in a later model switch into the earlier switch cradle and shot the worm gear machanisms out w/ liquid wrench teflon lube. I think one of the 3 motors is going bad. It sticks and overheats. Luckily it 's the back tilt function. Fore and aft and front lift are coming back on line.
The library seems a good starting place.
