Proper orientation of the WSW solenoid wires

[Michael L.]

Guys,

I'm trying to finish wiring up the dash on my 69 coupe non-AC car and I had a question about the WSW solenoid harness. Most of the plugs in the dash for things like fuel gauge, water temp, etc. have an orientation that is easy to figure out because it's the only way the plug will go on. See the attached pic of the fuel gauge plug. But the WSW solenoid which mounts to the back of the tach does not have something like this. See the attached pic. Can someone tell me what the correct orientation is for this plug? Do the yellow wires face the front of the tach or the firewall?

Thanks,
Mike

It's an on-off switch orientation of wires does not matter.

Mike it appears as though the wires can only go one way, as the male spades on cluster has tangs to only permit wires to go one way? the other pic, I don't see the tangs, I am with Tom should work either way.

Thanks guys. I heard from other sources that I tried the same thing. Orientation for that plug doesn't matter.
