Default where does the steering column plug harness go.

Man - I'm sure this is basic - but my other cars are a flat set of plugs that sit on the side of the column.

Does this curved set of plugs go under/over/to side of column?


Thanks!

Yes that’s correct. The tangs should be a couple inches up from the ignition switch and they will be located on the passenger side of the column.

Unless it's like mine. I had to remove that flat connector years ago and use a non-factory plug due to bad connections. That was 30 years.

So...here's a couple of pics for you rangers (everyone likes pics). I see no tangs - maybe not a factory column?

Are we talking the u-shaped deal on the end of the bracket that holds the column in? Has two holes on each end.


(pic of column is from passenger side - I can get drivers side too - but no mounting tangs on that side either)

Thanks!
I can see by the purple wire that that's for your clutch neutral safety switch. Did you need the wiring schematic?
