| Post subject: | headlight switches |
At some stage my mini was re-wired with new switches. i now have taken the stereo out and replaced the central switch panel and have got some original switches. I just cant work out how to wire it all back up. I have 3 wires for the parkers, 3 for the head lights and 3 for the wipers. I have two of the original switches. Does anyone know how to wire these switches? if someone can tell me what one is the live connection, switch and earth i can work it out from there and hopefully stop blowing fuses. thanks |

The original switches have numbers which are a little hard to see, but definitly there. i can't answer for the wires you have as anything goes after 40 years of other people's wiring modifications. But I've included the stock colours if it helps. Lighting switch: 1 to instrument lights (Red) 6 to park lights (may be shared with instrument lights) (Red) 8 to high/low beam switch (Blue) 4 to +12V Wiper wiring details vary, much more so than what I've put below. But as you have 3 wires for the wipers it may be a self parking (round motor) wiper. (roundnose , self parking): 6 to ground (Black) 1 to wiper motor (Brown/Green 8 to wiper motor (Green/Yellow) Your sig says 64 850 however...the third wire might be a second green wire which feeds a dash switch to the instrument lights. If so: Early cars had square no self parking wiper motor: 1 to +12Volts ( Green) 6 to wiper motor (Brown/Green) Australian Deluxes according to the Gregory's had the wiper motor thus: 1 to wiper ground (black) 6 to wiper motor Gotta be sure of what you have. |
