'87 Pre-Facelift - Rouge Wiring in Engine Bay
Posted: Thu Apr 15, 2010 8:47 pm
Hi guys and girls,
Spent most of the day sorting through the wiring in the engine bay and cabin, so far I've managed to remove some of the rouge wiring that had been cut at both ends, but left in the loom within the cabin.
Now, concerning the engine bay wiring, I've got a new loom coming from eBay, but I have found a rouge piece of wiring, which is part of the original loom, and looked to have been cut quite a while ago due to the tarnishing on the cables.
The cable in question looks like a length of 0.75mm 2 core household cable, but seems to be part of the original wiring loom in the engine bay as said above. After tracing it back into the loom, its crimped to 2 cables, that trace through the fusebox, and then through the bulkhead into the cabin but from here I can't seem to find them in any of the looms, and I've had them all apart.
Cable colours are probably not clear in the picture, but they are;
Solid brown crimped to Blue w/ Green Stripe
Solid black crimped to Green w/ Yellow Stripe
Located on the RHS of the Engine bay as you stand and look at the front of the car.
Would anyone know what they're for? Quite confusing to be honest..
