[VAC] Re: 7 Pin Wiring Electrical Connector




For what it's worth, the '65 owner's manual shows these colors for the leads
on the trailer side.  My '65 Caravel was wired exactly like this, but I
wouldn't take it as gospel.  Over the years, previous owners may have
rewired the connector using different colors.  I suggest you only use this
as a starting point, and test each lead with a battery before connecting it
to the new style connector with standard configuration.

This is the trailer side view of the old the old style connector with 7
round pins.  The groove (or ridge) on the plug housing is between 4 and 3.
