I'm rewiring Marcia while I have a little time. This is how I'm going to hide as much of the wirering as I can. Luckily what came out was labled but I want to upgrade a few doggies in the loom
I have my trusty :lol: Haynes but as you could imagine none of them are perfect and the one I'm going by I have written all over it :roll:

I want to find a program I can redo a diagram of my loom :wink:

Try that QuickCAD I gave you.

I am an ex- draftsman and I hate CAD... :evil:
I have tried QuickCAD, DesignCAD 3D, Autocad and Inventor. I can't use any of the bastards... you need to have an employer who will pay you to sit there while you spend a year or more learning them.
I can use CADKEY 6 (for DOS) but it's now obsolete and I have no copy. :cry:
/end rant

I now use pens and paper to draw, then scan the bugger.:mrgreen:

<edit> I do have a proper diagram for roundy Oz van, I'll scan it for ya.

Is it the wiring diagram you want or a loom 'map'?

When I got a new 850 loom I measured a drew a 'map' of the loom with distances between each branch and colours and lengths of wires in each branch. If that would be of help I can send you a copy of the file in PDF.

Cheers for that David, not exactualy what I was looking for but will come in very handy. Also just checking that came throu as a Word Doc.

I Believe I have all the Front and Rear lights and Blinks correct, Switchs wipers, dash & fuse box.

Relays "new era"" for the lights I just have to work out and the 8 fuse box specialy for the Mains. The thing that gets me are the Mains "Brown wires" are differantly wired for every style :roll: :lol:

Need to get some new wires as some have earthed at some time
