[76GoldGP]

I looked up the turn signal switch needed for my 76 GP in the 76-87 service parts catalog and came up with the Delco part No 1997984. I bought it and put it on the car. Now when I am trying to connect to the original connector plug, the connector doesn't fit - it is slightly wider than the female connector in the car.

The switch is for a car with cornering lights.

When looking up the switch 1997984 on eBay it is often listed as being for cars 1977 and up. Strangely I have also found some 1997984 listed as being for the years 69-76 (corvette).

Why doesn't the 1997984 connector fit my 76 connector? Are there two different versions of this switch/connector?

Also, the colors of the wires doesn't exactly match. There is an orange wire next to the brown at one end on the 1997984 I bought, but no pink wire as in the car's connector. Should the colors of the switch match the colors of the car's connector?

Grateful for any advice.
