88 Tc t5 swap clutch safety switch wiring October 27, 2017, 12:28:02 AM Hello, i have a 1988 thunderbird turbo coupe factory auto transmission. I am currently in the process of installing a t5. I cant find the wires that go to the clutch safety switch. Can someone post a picture of switch and the wires coming out of harness please... So i can see location and color Quote Selected

I did this on my 85 Mustang when I switched from a T5 to a C4. Quote Selected

88 Tc t5 swap clutch safety switch wiring Reply #6 – October 31, 2017, 12:10:28 PM I "think" automatic cars are equipped with the connector hanging there waiting for use on a standard.meaning... the harnesses were built with with AOD and standard applications.the harness you want to target is located here.look under the car on the transmission tunnuel up near the drivers side gas pedal.there is a harness that penetrates into the drivers side of the trans/bell housing areafeel under carpet on the drivers side bell housing hump and you will find a harness.up behind the center of the dash there will be a connector there that goes to the transmission.that harness flows around the lower part of your dash, towards the sterring column and from there you may find the NSS connector so you can actually plug in your clutch pedal swtich into it. if not fab up a connector or whatever you have to do to have the clutch actually supervise start Quote Selected
