Flashers and fuse locations can be found in the Owner's Manual. If you don't have one of these, reproductions are available through T-bird parts vendors who help support the VTCI Forum. Having this is virtually a must-have if you're going to own your car for any period of time, as is the Shop Manual and reproductions of the Electrical and Body-Trim Assembly Manuals. There are numerous differences between '61-'62-'63, with more commonality between '61-'62 than '62-'63 for some items and '62-'63 for others.

Again, as Alan had stated there is a difference from 61,62,and 63. Your 62 it could be located in another place in under the dash board. It's always been a good idea that when you own the year T bird, you should also own the manuals to help you find your way around. Oh ! and welcome to the forum........

Alan, I have the Shop Manual, Body & Trim Specs, and Electrical Assy manuals - where can I find an Owner's Manual for my 62?
