I have bought a ’68 Corvette with part of the electrical system disassembled.
Also a lot of the cables have been changed, so the colours on the cables is not according to what I find in the electric schematics. There is a cable going from the wiper limit switch toward the wiper motor I need to know where to attach.

Anyone who can help?

Ole,
You say a lot of wires have been changed. The electrical system on C3s can be enough of a problem without being able to have a reference for wire colors. Before you start tackling your car wire by wire, it may be a good idea to just buy the wiring harness and do it right the first time. It will be very labor intensive but in the long run if you have the correct color and length wires, it will be much easier to find future problems. My harness is in bad shape and I plan on doing the harness replacement now that my garage is finished.
I don't have my car here with me at work today but will look at it tonight . I have a '69 but I don't think there is a difference. And will also ask the only guy in my club with a '68 to see if his wire is attached and if so, where.

On a '69, it connects to the red wire that comes out of the side of the wiper motor through a grommet close to the firewall on the driver's side with a black plastic spade connector. There are many subtle differences between a '68 and '69, so be a little careful is assuming they are the same. Does your schematic say '68 and '69 are the same? Most of my catalogs list different harnesses for '68 and '69 with the exception of the speed warning harness which is the same for both years.

Scott, I'm glad you jumped in there cause I might have given him the wrong info. I talked to Jimmy ('68) yesterday and his car is back in the shop again so he can not check out the connection.
