Looking for a detailed layout of the underside of this radio.. Parts layout and wiring..

USES CHASSIS Number 8A02

Does anyone have or maybe worked on this and has some detailed drawings they made??

Thanks

Anyone have a clue to what this is? and were the white wire goes??

Wherever the white wire is supposed to go it's a fairly late addition to the radio, probably because the original was a crumbling rubber wire.

Maybe that's the antenna coil?  It's hard to tell from that small view, can you post a picture of the entire underside of the chassis?

For anyone following the schematic is in volume 12, Zenith p. 12-18

First you need to figure out which coil it is (ant or osc). Then use an ohm meter to see what relationship the white wire has to the other terminals on the coil. Using the schematic sort out where the wire goes. Piece of cake!!
