Hello,

So this weekend i finally managed to get my rear wiring loom through the chassis rail and back to the engine bay.

Managed to plug 80% of the plugs back in straight away but have two left.

One - White with purple line
Two - Green with brown line

Any ideas?

Does anyone have a diagram of the rear wiring loom?


Also does anyone have an ideas or bought anything to tidy up the electrics in the engine bay.

My 90 is a 1986 and has a engine conversion so wires everywhere, loads of cable ties and it looks crap.

Thanks

I can't find a White/Purple, but a Purple/White is generally for the internal lights.
Green/Brown should be from the reversing light switch to the reversing lamp

Ok i'll have a look. Should be able to find the reverse switch and follow the cable.

why did you run it through the chassis? It's much better off outside the chassis, I've got the wiring diagram for your Mandy, ill have a butchers tonight, was it always a diesel?

I just replaced it to where it was, to be fair it was a pain to do. Next time i'll run it down the outside

It was a diesel (NA i think) and now a v8.

It has a trailer socket, well did. So some of the wires might go to running that.

Does the white/purple trace terminate in the engine bay?

I'll pull the diagram out tonight but a quick look at the Lucas colour chart says its for a fuel pump, which isn't right, is your fuel sender all wired in?

Google "convoluted tubing" The split stuff is good for tidying up engine bay wiring, and protecting the wiring from muck/damage.
