Hi, I'm installing an EZ wiring harness into my '67 FJ40 and need some help. I'm using an original early turn signal switch (6 wires, see picture), an original brake switch and original tail lights. The diagrams that I'm showing are from the 1958-7/1970 chassis body manual.
My first area of confusion: The wiring diagram shows 3 wires going into each tail light (brake, turn, park seem to all be separate). My lights definitely only have 2 wires and the EZ wiring harness has only 2 wires for each light (turn/stop and park). Can someone explain to me why there are 3 wires shown going into these tail lights?
Can someone give me some advice on how to wire this? I think I have the rear section wired correctly (tail light wire to the less bright wire on the light, and the turn wire going into the brighter wire). The brake lights should run on the same wire as the turn signals..
Wiring the switch is pretty straightforward until I get to #5 source of electricity and #6 stop switch (straight to the stop switch, but where does the stop switch go to?)
If you guys can help me get this straight, I'll post up a detailed wiring diagram (EZ harness to original FJ40 parts) to help people in the future. I've done a lot of searching on this, but can't wrap my head around it. I'm open to using a trailer converter if that's what I have to do.
I'm also wanting to add a hazard switch to the mix here, but I don't have an original one. Just a push/pull on/off switch. If this complicates things too much, lets leave it our for now.
