Hi guys, I know this might be a long shot but I'm in need of some good photos and some measurements of the 1971 Charger Headlight Washer Harness from under the dash. It's the harness that runs from the dash mounted Wash Headlamps switch and plugs into the main harness. A good photo of the part number and vendor code tag would really be a bonus also. I need one for my setup and I'm considering making one if I can't purchase an original from someone. I have the factory diagram but it doeas not provide correct length and there is no part number that I can find for this harness in the parts book. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

This is what I have.. I have some more somewhere and have a complete setup at home... I too had to create that one harness. The factory underdash harness already had the plug and then you have the switch mounted to the dash frame. I just made one and routed it in the most obvious manner that would be out of the way.

This is from my former survivor..

Thanks Troy, I'm actually shocked that this got a response so quick because pieces for this system are so elusive. I guess I'm hoping that someone that has a 71 Charger S.E. parts car, that had the washers originally, would pull this harness to grab some pics of it and the tag. I know it's not too likely, but sure would help provide some more valuable knowledge about this setup.

I know in the past on Moparts someone posted the differences between a C-body headlight waster system and a B-body system with pictures.

IIRC, it had some great detail and info. Try the Moparts and Moparts Google powered search features.

Anyone remember that thread? And how long ago it was? Hopefully it wasn't in the WIW section and lost forever.

I think I either created that thread or replied to it. I tried in vain for YEARS to find an original harness for the thing ( that one same connector from the switch to the main underdash harness ) and I never did find it, hence me creating one..

Well, here's what I created using the 1971 Factory Service Manual diagram to guide me. I had to carefully pick through about 12 underdash wiring harnesses from various Mopar cars I stripped to get the correct Brown wire with the White tracer with a Female Bullitt end on it. What a pain! I have a small photo of an untouched 71 Charger's washer switch still in the car and that had the unique Red 4 terminal plug (but only uses 2 of the terminals). I duplicated this as well because I believe it to be factory original. Now if I could just see the entire harness from a car to get the correct length and part number on the tag, that would be awesome! I believe I have the harness length pretty darn close on the one I made though. Here's a few pics.

Also, if I can make them smaller, I have photos I took showing some of the differences in this system between the 71 Charger and the C-Body cars. I even found the difference (other than the stamped part numbers)in the wiper arm pivot assemblies. It's so tiny, it's easy to miss it.

Did you ever get a response? I am also putting together this elusive option. I am having a harness made from your photos. Do you have a photo of the reservoir and mounting? I have the reservoir from a 71 Fury I plan on making work. Also, what is the number on the flasher, I am unable to source one.

I have a box full of headlamp washer stuff.. Let me pull it out. You are correct, the differences between the B and C body wiper arms are very small.........

Cheers,

Here's the Charger specific bottle with riveted mounting bracket. The C Body (Imperial) bottle is identicle except for it does not have the bracket attatched to it.

You sure? I had the system in my former '71 Charger R/T and the bottle lined up perfectly with the OEM pre-punched holes on the headlamp bezel it mounted to......... I believe the C-body has the bracket.....

Positive buddy. Here's a pic of it installed on a 71 Charger R/T. I also have photos of a 1971 Road Test Charger with the option and you can see the bracket in the photos.
