I combed through my '68
wiring a little while back before removing the
body from the frame. I think I
found the same wires and determined they
matched the '69 diagram for the side
markers. I vaguely recall my '68
also had some differences with either the
alternator plug or headlight
relay that matched something other than the '68
wiring diagram.

  You
may be looking at the stock wiring for optional driving lights.
Stick a meter
on them and turn your headlight switch (Sorry, can't
remember clockwise or
counter clockwise.).  If you register 12 volts,
it's driving lights.  If by
pulling out the head light switch you see 12
volts, then it would be side
marker lights.  Some late '68's had side
markers.

I have a '68 2000 with color
wiring diagram available. I'm trying to
determine a pair a wires under the
hood located by the left and right
headlights coming out of the harness with
the others. I have identified
2 other pairs not attached to anything as the
foglights which I do not
have (red/green stripe and black). The ones I need
help with are
green/white stripe and black. My headlights and turn signals are
connected and fine.
These pairs are not attached to anything. The only other
symptom
elsewhere is that my horn doesnt work but I'm thinking its under the
Grant steering wheel as the problem. Maybe not?? If I connect a jumper
from +
battery directly to the horn, it works.
If someone has a chance to peek under
their hood and see if they have
these wires connected to anything, that would
be awesome!!
Happy 4th!!!!
