Hey Guys,
Could someone tell me where the ignition time delay light connects in to in a 68 Fury III?
I have managed to get one as for some reason the original one was removed from the car. As the car did already have one I assume this can just plug straight in somewhere? Wiring diagrams are not much help.

This is the light that lights up your keys and sits above the ignition.

Pic attached.

Doesn't that plug into the timer relay?

Yup. Look at the inst. panel wiring diagram. "starter and ignition switch lamp" 18y single wire plugs into J5-18Y on Time Delay Relay

It plugs into the steering column harness.. As you can see it has a short wire connected to it...The harness then picks up the timer relay which is located in the fuse block usually...Like you said the scematics are not very helpful unless you have the ones we had at the dealership...Those are to scale and were as long as the car and very accurate...Bill

Thanks for the replies.
After checking the build sheet, it turns out the car didn't have one originally (my mistake) so this might be a bigger job than I originally thought.
I assume then my car wont even have the 'timer relay' unless there are other things that run off this?

Is this installation easy to do or not worth worrying about and what other parts would I need?

Depends on how "original" you want it to look. I guess you could hack it up and make it work. For me it would not be worth the trouble.
