henk Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 My project (Series3 with 200td on shortened RRC chassis) is advancing and now started with the electricity. Got a loom from a friend but I am wondering what kind of car it came off as I have some problems identifying connectors and colors (bit color blind) Loom has glass fuses so I guess it comes from a 2.5 NAD or so but not sure Here some pictures An can in the engine room two connectors fit on one larger connector that goes through the bulkhead? Thanks for any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 looks the same as my 1989 110's loom, rubber moulded plugs, some of the 3 & 4 pin plugs fit the larger multi pin sockets, so yes to engine bay with 1 or more plugs connected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henk Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share Posted June 11, 2014 Is there an electric library for this type as for td5 where you can find back each connector and its use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Not for pre 300tdi vehicles, only the normal wiring diagrams, how quickly do you need the info ? I can look it up using my diagrams & 110 over the coming weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henk Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 It't only 2 years that I am working on the car so another weekend I'll easily survive. btw I made an excel file with all relations between items so depending on the color of the wire you can find back easily the use of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 from the top of your photo's in order pic 1 looks to be the connector for main lighting switch on the left of steering column. pic 2 can't clearly see the trace colour but look like the wires to heater fan slider switch. pic 3 to interior light/instrument light switch in the small 3 switch panel pic 4 dim dip unit plug, you can leave this unplugged, the unit is not very reliable & fails often, I gave up after 5 units went dead. pic 5 see info for pic 1 pic 6 red yellow = rear fog light, blue/black difflock switch Please confirm the colour codes on that wire pic 7 see pic 1 & 5 pic 8 need to see the wire colours pic 9 hazard warning switch connector pic 10 ignition switch connector pic 11 see pic 4 best I can do at the moment. hope it helps, you will find all have a matching connector in opposite pin layout & same wire colour codes, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
