Where does this wire go?!
« on: June 23, 2008, 11:20:25 AM »


76 550F. This is a shot from inside where the airbox would be. I do know that my Break Light doesn't work, so is this part of that problem?

Spare ground for a 3 prong turn signal flasher.

I can confirm that. That looks like that connector that fits on the blinker relais, I thnik it normally goes trough the hole you see behind the green wire . It's loose on my 550 too as I use a modern blinker relais with two wires and a direct ground.
Are your blinkers blinking? If so I wouldn't worry about it...

Nah, leave the thread here, so that others might see it and know what their spare green wire is for :)
