Hi,

I am attempting to transplant the dash cluster from a 1989 Metro HLE (UK) into my 71 Moke.

Image

Reasons I'm doing this:
- It will give me an accurate speedo with Metro engine/box and Metro tyre sizes.
- A factory speedo cable fits.
- I like the look of it. :)

The metro cluster has two flat plugs - an eight pin one and a ten pin one. I can get the correct plugs from Jaycar, but I need a wiring diagram to know which pin connects to what!

Does anyone have a wiring diagram for this car they would be willing to scan and e-mail to me?

Cheers,

Are there any wires attached to the unit?

I don't have a wiring diagram, but I have a list of the standard European colour codes.

No, no wires and no plugs unfortunately.

Just been doing a Google search for you and ran out of time.

Lots of metro info around and manuals as well - havn't found an online one but there is a few haynes type metro manuals on UK Ebay.

Hi,

It was a 1989 Metro HLE manual. 1275 A+ manual.

If you could scan me the diagram, that would be fantastic. :)

Cheers,

Thanks Steve, that's great!

Unfortunately I can't read it all, especially the left bottom corner. Which seems to be the main bit I need. :(

Can you please e-mail me the scans - brett<at>nicho.id.au

Much appreciated.
