Need help
I have an 86 Iroc. I need help with the rear hatch striker plate wiring. I know it has power at all times from the diagram but don’t see a place for the wire to connect to.
This is what I have for information any help would be greatly appreciated

Re: Need help
Are you talking about that lone wire coming from the from the latch assembly in the bottom photo? That wire is not used on Camaros. IIRC, It's for the rear compartment light on the Firebirds.
Edit: That black wire is the ground for the cargo compartment light. It goes to the switch on the rear trim panel. The wire I reference above is white. Sorry for the confusion.

Re: Need help
Yes that would be the wire. It was connected to the rear hatch struts when I got the car. Once I connected the rear defogger there was no place to connect it. So I assumed that it had to be connected to something to get power. That and the diagram was showing the same thing. So I wasn’t sure and figured I would ask. Thank you very much for your help

Re: Need help
I honestly don’t know its off an 84. My original hatch had holes for hood pins. Looked super cool but squeaked like crazy and couldn’t get lit to stop
