Lead to connector on bottom of Type II ACC servo unit

There is supposed to be a wire that plugs into a single protruding prong on the bottom of the Type II ACC servo.

According to the Type II ACC manual, it's the "cold engine lockout switch."

I cannot find any trace of either the connector, or the wire itself, on my car.

Can someone advise me where it leads back to?

It seems to be completely AWOL on my 1980 TD.

There's a thermal switch on the bottom that opens a vacuum valve. On mine there are just 2 vacuum line connectors on the bottom of the servo. No wires

Ok well that could be it.

I was saying "wire" because the unit at the bottom of the servo is labelled as a switch.

Where do the vacuum leads go? What colour(s) are they?

Is it just a regular rubber vacuum connector?

Any chance of pic(s)?

Thanks

I remember the first time I saw a servo.. was looking at a 1977 300D with a friend. I didn't know what it was, or what it did... but I knew I didn't like it. Something with that many wires and vacuum lines going to it is always up to no good

Thanks, however....

It's help-ful, but it doesn't explain to what the switch is connected.

And because it's a vacuum switch, it isn't included in the wiring diagram.

It appears the vacuum line(s) is/are completely missing, so I need to figure out where it/they lead back to.

Perhaps this will help a bit.

There is a black tube and a yellow tube hooked to it. You can just hook the two together and bypass it. I guess I should say on mine...

Hunters chart shows yellow/white.
