which color wire was the fusible link for power to the cab on?

hey guys, i got a quick question. a while back, i lost all power to anything in the cab of my 1977 ford f-150 and someone on here told me it was the fusible link on the wire coming from the solenoid to the cab and i cut the fusible link off and replaced it with a fuse link from autozone and it all worked again. just recently, i started rebuilding the top end on my 460 that i dropped in there and when i started i disconnected that wire from the fuse link. well now im to the point where im hooking everything back up and i cant remember what wire it hooks to again, does anyone know the color of the wire that had that fusible link on it? if someone has a chilton or something, the wiring diagram should say but i NEED to find out bad. im anxious to see the performance this machine has now. i put completely redone 1969 429 high compression heads and an RV cam with .484 lift and 268 degree duration and a weiand stealth intake manifold on it. thanks guys, tony

On the pass side wiring harness there is a black/yellow wire coming in to the cab that has the fuseable link.

Yes you have to remove the wrap covering to expose the fusible link which is about 18" from the relay connector.

No problem. I looked it up on my wiring diagram for you.
