68 Coronet Superbee: Neutral Safety Switch and Connector?
Hi, and apologies if this has been covered, I've tried to search/read every reference, no luck:
1968 Coronet (real) Superbee, 383 with 727 auto (column)
Replacing both NSS and the 3 wire connector, but the only NSS I find anywhere is the flat 3 prong switch in my attached picture, for which I cannot find the 3 wire connector/plug that fits over the switch. The connector picture attached shows the only ones I find anywhere, with the partial "half moon" ledge inside the connector which obviously doesn't fit onto the flat pin base of the switch. I need the Connector that is deeper with no half-moon-ledge-thing inside with the wires coming straight out the back instead of off the L shaped side. Hope that makes some sense, as I can't find any pictures even of the "straight out the back" connector.
Thanks in advance, need to get this thing done so I can find it a new home.
TCC half moon raised ledge beneath connectors won't let this go onto NSS Flat/even base of new NSS
Hey, thanks much for the response. But it physically just doesn't go over the pins. Hard to see in the pic, but the connector has that internal "ledge" next to the pin sockets, but the switch is completely flat, so no indentation to allow the connector to go over the pins. That raised half moon ledge hits the black pin base and keeps the pins from reaching the sockets. I've read that there were two types of 3 pin connectors used in '68, but can't find the other one without the ledge anywhere. May just end up trying to cut/trim out the ledge part...
Thanks much for the napa link - the "shorter one" might work, just need to ask them for a picture of the whole pin area - of course they just have the one angled pic, with 3 full pics of the one I already have.
Much appreciated
