WANTED 1972 Town and country Engine Wiring Harness

[mopars4life]

This is for a 440 car. New Yorker should be the same I believe. Must be from a 1972 with electronic ignition. Need one to use as a template to have a vendor make a new one. My car is missing the harness completely and the one for the trans neutral safety but I think I have that one covered. Can be brittle but can't have any missing pieces/connectors. Thanks.

Are you working with Evans Wiring Harnesses on this?
If not, maybe they already have what you need?

I am working with them to build it but need a donor harness to help with one thing
on the harness I can’t verify. The brown wire on the starter solenoid that ties into the neutral safety switch has two wires coming off the solenoid. It’s normally one wire. I can’t tell why that is and I checked a friends New Yorker to get most of what I needed but I can’t dig into his harness as his car is a low mileage time capsule.

Factory Service Manuals are downloadable/free from someplace (can't remember where), the FSM might have a note for where that wire goes, and then you look on the referred-to page and should see a 'mating' note?

Might be easier than trying to get a whole harness?

Thanks I have a 71 manual but don’t see that in it and knowing Mopar it could be a one year only thing. I was going to get a cd of the FSM as a last resort and see if it helps but the best way is to give Bill a full harness to work from.

And they have a '72 Chassis manual. I looked and there isn't a second wire for the NSS. There is an alternate for the manual trans that goes to the clutch pedal, but that's not applicable here.

My bet is someone added a switch or jumper wire to bypass a bad NSS.... Otherwise, I have no idea where another wire would be coming from. It makes no sense to have another source for the ground needed for the NSS.

Thanks - that is not the right diagram. I need two wires coming off G in that circuit going to trans (same color) tied in - may be a 72 only thing.The other wire shown for manual trans only which this isn't.

Yeah it's factory not aftermarket I am 99% sure of that.

That is from the '72 chassis manual.

A larger shot of the same diagram showing "Chrysler".
