Where do these plugs go?

Post by 71 LONG BED »

Anybody know What these might have been used for?
They weren't plugged into anything when I took it out of the truck.

They actually look like they haven't ever been plugged into anything. There is one on each side, both look the same.

Those are auxiliary power ports. For example if your panel had a tach and/or vacuum gauge, the gauges would've had backlighting which got their power from here.

Thanks Keith. The other panel I got was so hacked, that the back lighting for the air gauge(airbrakes) and the tach were just kind of spliced in. As was everything else. I'm glad I got an unmolested one now. :D
