thought many people say the fitting of a new loom is very difficult it is only certain parets of the fitting that are to say the least tricky passing it through the bulk head is easy, as long as you pass the right length through i.e. the one with the bulb connectors on -oops-. However i am now in a state of some conusion rather than leave a length of wire on each terminal i totally removed them and now when i look at wireing diagrams the light switch has a red wite going to it but which one there are 3 all with spade connectors on ???? (switch connections are screw) and also i dont have an ignition switch yet as it has not yet made its-self apparant after the MOVE so how do i go about testing my wireing once installed? any help would be apprichiated thank you.[ This Message was edited by: ash on 04-03-2002 17:44 ]

Lo, assuming I have the correct year of
wiring diagram you should find the following.
the lighting switch has three terminals
marked A, S2, and S1
the three red wires ALL go to S1.
a BROWN wire with BLUE stripe goes to A.
a BLUE wire goes to S2.

Ash, I cannot describe each operation for
testing the wiring loom, I will send you a
scan of the wiring diagram and colour code.
