I don't get it it is horn relay - not headlight relay, or is it both? it is hard to find this out on wiring diagram '70 Challenger SE '77 Dodge M880/W200 '08 Magnum R/T

The 70 E-Bodies don't have headlight relays. Some of them do have headlight "delay" relays. The headlight delay relays are discussed earlier in this post.

That's weird for me, now it is clear why lot of E-body owners install headlamp relays on radiator support panel, I'll probably do the same Next problem: I have low fuel warning lamp, there is relay for it, one of the wires from it (d.blue) have angled round female ending like it should go to instrument panel fuel gauge, but there is another one that goes from sending unit with same ending, fuel gauge has one bolt connector per "side". Shoud there be some coupler for these wires? '70 Challenger SE '77 Dodge M880/W200 '08 Magnum R/T

Your pic #1 is the AO1 steering column key illumination light after 1970... ..It can't be used with the correct 1970 AO1 turn signal/flasher switch....On your overhead console low fuel relay : Both blue wires will be connected to the fuel gauge...When using the relay,the black wire gets disconnected from the back of the gauge and is unused...The blue wire{relay} takes it's place...

I'll try to connect fuel gauge that way Yesterday I powered up the wiring, and most of stuff that is already on place work without problems Wiper motor (3 speed) has some problem, maybe wires in plug are put in wrong order, it stops when I switch them off, it should go back down and stop then. I'm also not sure, shouldn't it have intermittent function? When I turn the switch a bit there is a click and motor starts to operate constantly, next 30deg or more nothing changes, then there is a point where I can feel that switch starts to turn bit harder and motor operates faster and faster to the end of switch movement, is it ok? 3 speed wipers have parking function? there is different motor arm without plastic round insert. ... On wiring diagram I found two blue wires that should go to some A/C delay relay mounted close to blower resistor, but I have no wires like these in my harness, and no relay or a sign of it on heater box, what was it?

A few things on the vari-speed motor/switch...Check and confirm the wiring is correct if you suspect they somehow got switched around...Make sure your dash switch has a good ground for the testing or the motor won't operate correctly...Here's a previous thread with the wiper linkage info and numbers so you can check to see if you have the correct linkage.. link And lastely, take a moment to confirm that the wiper motor switch plate is in the correct tab for the parking assy...Here's a pic of the correct positions.. 4967381-slotpositions.JPG (308 downloads)

I think that's called the heater lamp. It lights up the heater controls (or AC if you have that). If I remember correctly, it came standard on all the E bodies. (probably not on the rare heater delete cars though) Yes, there are other switch panel lamps. Tav

Hmmm... I don't have an assembled car here to look at right now, but I looked at a map light switch, and mine has a Z shaped grounding strap that grounds the switch housing to the metal dash frame. I'm thinking then that the ground would come through the yellow wire if the door was open, or through the dash frame/switch housing if the switch was ON? Does it work properly if you ground the switch housing? Tav

I'm fixing a 70 Charger that I'm not sure if will need or even if this relay is used to 70 B bodies. Last edited by moparts; 01/26/09 04:18 PM.

Does it work properly if you ground the switch housing? No, switch housing ground has nothing to do with its function, it has just two poles and they are connected or not depending on switch position (none of them is connected to housing), so ground can be taken only through yellow wire I do not want to change wiring and ground it to das frame, it is not original and light can be easy switched on and forgotten - I would also need to change power wire to ignition switched one to make it safe. When maplight works in E-body, anybody? it is weird to open the door to switch the lamp on- especially on the way is there any ignition switched ground? don't think so '70 Challenger SE '77 Dodge M880/W200 '08 Magnum R/T

Glad to see you've got the wiper motor working..There should be a ground for the switch using one of the screws that hold the whole dash switch panel to the frame...Some guys have tried to work on their wiper motor with the switch panel hanging loose{and therefore ungrounded} off the dash frame...That's what I was refering to... On the map light...I have the factory set-up on mine and the switch is a Two-way piece{front to back}...One setting will turn on the light at all times...The other position will activate the light when the door is opened...
