1970 Ghibli, LHD, Automatic Need your input. Please see the attached photo. The switch is located at the extreme left side of the dashboard, just under the lip. Trying to determine what it might control. Does any other Ghibli owner have this switch? It shows 12 volts flowing through it but when flipped, nothing operates. When I had the dash top removed, the two black wires disappear into the wrapped main wiring harness, which leads me to believe it might be factory-installed. Thoughts? Image Unavailable, Please Login
Unfortunately, no. No mention on the shipping notice, either. No holes in the bumper where fog lights might have been installed.
The fog lights were installed behind the grill mesh. Most Ghibli were prewired for the fog lights although few had the option installed by the factory. Behind the grill mesh you should see tapped wires on both sides on the brackets that hold the fog lights. Your switch looks original. Use an electronic wire tracer to see where the wired go. Ivan
As I said in post #4, use an electronic wire tracer to see where the wires go. I suspect it is for fog lights. You will find the wires behind the front bumper taped to the fog light brackets https://www.amazon.com/VDV500-820-Generator-Continuity-Ethernet-Telephone/dp/B07VYN98QV/ref=sr_1_4?crid=7J3TFAN5C6W7&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.twsjmMDx8ycqGjLR_GBofqqTuXCH_sTQpFla8Aqc3RltqpbSCaer7qPgvExpqGbwnhud185sPSYt3yEGb6HJosOfYongXZByCuD-m6xmmCGWQjk0XyzLfA4syxEuH6r2oElqJokY73IZYM6zSwQHRJsOsFsA0B1jGODya0yRuXVk4U4Eu2Xl07q9apCYe0z1HAOB_RUBM-f_eAMLa-vn1Z9Q8nVURYvX8phgcylAwJU.KJpsC0dzynAkGT8EVcMfGf50mAO9oYjJSzNoMP8ucd8&dib_tag=se&keywords=electronic%2Bwire%2Btracer&qid=1761658877&sprefix=electronic%2Bwire%2Btracer%2Caps%2C156&sr=8-4&th=1
Our Bora has the same style switch, located immediately to the left of the steering column. It turns the Park lights on and off - without the driver having to open the headlight doors first. Normally, the Park lights turn on when the headlight doors are opened and the door-position-switch energizes the Main Lights circuit. Then the Vitaloni switch stalk turns on/off Headlights and High Beams. So again - our switch controls just the Park lights, independent of the headlight door circuit. But that is the Bora. Do the headlight doors have to be open on a Ghibli in order for the headlights to energize? Cheers, - Art
