Glove box light/switch

[kma9176]

Does anyone know if the Glovebox light/switch in my 71'Satellite Sebring plus should be a 2x wire or a single wire unit-I think it was 2x wire but not sure??

I have no clue. But if you can't get an answer here, ask Tommy at, parts hound.net

Most of them are a single pink wire. The wire is constant hot, and the terminal is the side of the socket. The bulb holder makes ground.

Yeap, socket/switch assembly cut and feeds ground via chassis to the center point at bulb, while constant positive is feeded to the bulb base via the pink wire.

Terminal in fact gets a tab to keep into the plastic piece and a slot to accept the bayonet side point of the bulb base. Is a ver specific terminal for it.

Here’s a diagram if it helps.. right at the top in the middle

The correct socket/wire assembly would reach the power provision around speaker area down the dash... bullet kind terminal like the one on pic. You could get a shorter one if you want and find it cheaper, just elongating the wire with an extension or splicing a longer wire in the middle. Socket/switch itself is very common to mostly of 60/70s Mopars so no need to be specific for 71/74 B body

this should be the correct one by the wire lenght:

but this will work the same

just elongate the wire.

get into a JY around and sure you could find one in $2-5 LOL
