Missing wire?

Post by Ray White » Tue Feb 16, 2021 3:01 am

I am installing a new TC wiring harness from Auto Sparks (here in the U.K.) One thing that had me puzzled for a while is there seems to be a white wire missing that connects the ignition warning light to the ignition switch. Looking at the wiring diagram it would seem that there is a yellow wire going to the light... and that is present in the main loom... but the white wire from the light to the ignition switch is absent from, I imagine, the small dashboard harness. I just wondered if anyone else has had this?

Hi Ray - I have the Auto Sparks dashboard harness and it has a single white wire included.

Interesting. It is not a problem but I wanted to be sure it wasn't me at fault.

I now have a few words to eat as I have found the white wire. It was there all along. :roll:

If that's the biggest mistake you make this week then you're well ahead of me.
