I have a 69 SS convert with Power top, PW and clock) and don't know what plugs in where. The clock I think plugs into BATT which is next to clock fuse, The PW has a plug with a center extrusion which I believe can only fit into the ACC hole next to the 20A fuse. That leaves the heavy orange wire with a black stripe that comes through the firewall from the engine side. If I put that into the hole marked IGN then the car won't shut off. Anyone that can advise me???? Anyone have a picture or diagram of what plus in where on the fuse box? Thanks

PW don't go thru the fuse panel, there is a 20A breaker mounted on the firewall to the right (as your looking at it) of the master cylinder that powers the PW setup. That breaker is directly connected to the horn relay terminal where the charge wire (red #12 wire to battery + terminal) is located.
Same with the power top. |

Do you have a picture by chance?

Do you have any relays with the pw or power top wiring? If so, a wire from the relay will plug into the fuse box and a main feed wire should plug into an external fuse (on the firewall as in the previous response). The wire from the external fuse will plug into the main harness for the pw or pt as appropriate. Factory wiring diagrams are not clear on this.
Hope this helps. Phil Woj. |

So mine has the red and black wire PLUS a third wire that is heavy gauge (orange with black stripe) that goes through the firewall and has a plug on the end (female) with a pigtail extension (female) plug as well. This wire provides the power from the 30A relay to the inside of the car. I assume it connects to the same colored wire (orange with black stripe and same gauge) with opposite connection end (male)that is the connecting wire to my power windows. By the way, my power windows wont work with out these plugged together. There is also a pink wire that plugs into the IGN location which appears to be for the power windows as well since without the pink wire also connected to the fuse box the PW won't work. So with these all connected, now my turn signals don't work, and the emergency flashers work with an odd blinking pattern. Anyone............

I have a 69 Chevelle with power windows and a convertible with power top. I'll see if I can make some sense of the wiring for you today. Basically, you should have a relay that plugs into the fuse box (which port I'm not sure, but the plugs are shape specific) and one that plugs into the main power feed (from the firewall breaker). I'm not certain how two high-draw electical items are combined as you have (both off one breaker? one off the external breaker and one off the fuse box?).
Have you added one or both of these options? Phil Woj. |

Here are a few angles of my fuse box, 69RS pwr top, pwr windows:
![]() ![]() ![]() Hope these help, give me a call at 850-543-0221 this evening and I can try to talk you thru it, I hate electrical gremlins too. All my stuff works and I haven't changed any of the wires in question so I assume they are original. While taking the pics I noticed a 20a fuse was blown, replaced it so don't anyone get on me about that.
