I need help please.

[porsche.911@videotron.ca]

Hello everyone,

I need help with an electrical problem. Two years ago I bought a 1970 911T. This was a project car so a lot of parts were removed and put in boxes. After spending about 20,000 US dollars, I am almost done but I can not figure out some electrical problems.

The fuse boxes were changed to generic standard fuse boxes and I don't know if all the cables are plugged in the wright order. The hazard switch was removed and I don't know how to plug it back...there is a lot of wires plugged in this switch. My mechanic is usualy very good in electrical problems but he is just about to do a burn out with the german electric configuration.

1)
I need the fuse box connection diagram in color.

2)
I need to know the wiring sequence on the hazard switch.

3)
Where can I get a wiring diagram in color for a 1970 911T.

Your help is greatly appreciated, I want to drive my car...please email me with any idea or guideline.

Paul,

Actually, the wiring color code, terminal designations, and device number (33) for the switch are identical for the 1970, 1971, and 1973 schematic diagrams are all identical, so you can print the '73 diagram referred to above, or the '71 diagram and its' key list to the device numbers:

you really should bite the bullet and put the original fuse holders back in the car. they're readily available. if you can find another car to look at, you can draw up a diaghram of wire colors and where they go.

Hello

The hazard switch has a suiting connector and all the little numbers refer to the color codes. All very simple and straight forward. theconnector is also keyed and allowing only one position. Just make sure you have the correct year switch.

Paul,

Agree with the others... you need the orginal fuse box in the car. If you do not, each and every time you have ANY electrical problem with the car, its an experimental project for the mechanic. If you are not at home or your "normal" mechanic is not there to work on it, you then get to pay for someone new to learn all about it!

As well, it will lower the value of the car to ANY person who knows Porsches.

I am going out to a place today for some work on my car. They have an older coupe in the back that they are stripping parts off of and then crushing. They have GIVEN me the wiring harness and if there is a fuse box in the car I will get it for you... my cost is a Labatts Blue or two the next time I am in Montreal!

Paul,

Back home now and have the wiring harness. It does have the metal brace where the fuse blocks mount. The fuse blocks themselves are already gone but the guys at the shop told me that they are not expensive.

If you want this part, where the relays and fuse blocks bolt onto the body, pls let me know.

Just curious...
When did (if ever) Porsche get rid of these phoney fuses and cheesy holders?

You guys with the 964's and 993's...do you still have these crappy fuses in your "modern" cars?

I spent a whole afternoon cleaning every single flimsy brass contact in the front and rear fuse panels, and replaced all the fuses with new (crappy-style) ones. It made a huge difference in what finally worked properly in my car.

I could forgive these parts in a 50's car, but they should have been long gone by the 80's.

Did you know they used the same type on the titanic!!

Doug,

Have done this for years as well. Was at Zims on Friday and they told me that the new fuse holders (old style) are not expensive and instead of doing this game every couple of years I am thinking of just replacing mine when they start acting up again.
