Thought it was time to look at the electrics, so selecting the best PCB I had (which is still not good) and per-chasing new relays and fuses I diligently re connected the electrics to all the lights indictors horn and wipers after carefully cleaning all contacts! I placed the steering column switches oven the column but didn't fix as obviously I still have to fit the dash and this would get in the way!
"How hard can this be" I thought!
connect green plug to green plug, grey plug to grey plug,....and whats these two loose wire?
"Ah....got two loose wire there"
Blue wire to blue wire
Blue and yellow wire to blue and yellow wire.
Side lights on..............check..........back lights on.......check
Indicators on ..............check
wipers working............check
horn..........................check
Headlights on............. W.T.F
Why are my driving lamps on?
?
So crawling under the front I start checking and re checking I have all the wires around the right way
seems fine........
Check I have the PCB and plugs all connected correctly .. looks O.K
Scratch head and have a coffee...
Dig out wiring diagram kindly supplied by Roy.
W.T.F............Who at Matra decided that the blue wire should go to the blue and yellow
and the blue and yellow goes to the blue!!!!!!!!
Check the diagram first...........................
