Espace mk3 wiring routing question
August 21, 2015, 11:35:07 AM
Hi,apologies for what may seem a simple question,but I`m trying to get a wire from near the foot pedals to the under bonnet fuse box on my 2001 Grand Espace 2.2.Without major dismantling,can anyone please suggest a tidy route for getting this cable through.I`ve looked all over and can`t see an easy option.Thanks.

Drill a hole and put a grommet in it, then pass your wire through the grommet. Why do you need that wire?

Hi,didn`t really want to drill a hole (don`t know where would be safe as can`t really see the other side) and the connection is for the speed sensor for an after market cruise control system.

The only holes are for the wiring loom behind the fuse box, above the fuse box where the rod goes through for the brake master cyl or where the clutch pipe goes through behind the glove box. All are hard to access. Easy solution is to drill the hole!

An owner to my diesel espace managed to route a cable with the mirror cables on the driver side then drilled a hole in the wing and fed the wires down that way, maybe you could look into this route.
