Hi all

My 68 Camaro has no interior lights including gauge , dome and console lights none of them work, including the horn too! However all exterior lights work great. While trying to figure this out I cam across two cut wire underneath the dash and am having problems identifying them. One is a light green and the other yellow and are on the drivers side the yellow has power when the switch it turned on but the green doesnt). Any comments are welcome!

I think the yellow is power feed to radio. Have you checked the fuses for the other problem? I think all of the items you mentioned are on one fuse.

your dome light and courtesy lights should be white/orange wires, you can trace the dash lights back through the headlight switch if needed. I dont have my diagrams in front of me, but if needed I can dig them out

If it wouldnt be a big deal I would really appreciate those diagrams!
Also with paulgt2164 helps I think both of those wire are for the original factory radio..Which I dont have
