HHEELLPP early petrol van to aaz temperature wiring issue

[Autojunkie88]

Hi folks im sorry if this has been spoke of already, i have had a browse and search but not found what i need. can anyone help with the temp sensor wiring in my early 84 b reg panel? ive put an aaz in my early b reg and its not got 2 round white 7 ish pin connectors like the late ones have! therefore half the wiring doesnt seem compatable?! ive sorted oil light, battery light and put a rpm gauge on but cant seem to sort the temp gauge

please somebody help

thanks Ben

Hasn’t got , or they have been hacked out ?
I’m sure all wiring looms had them in the electrics box in the engine bay

The temp gauge wiring on a early is a single yellow wire with a red trace iirc, working against chassis earth , as the sender was brass and screwed into the metal thermostat housing , with just a unshielded spade connection

Hiya Steve thanks for the help, im going to go have a fiddle now
Mine is an early 1 so only has the 1 round connector which supplies the rear lights. it does have the yellow/red wire but dint seem to have much affect when wired to the yellow/red wire from the aaz engine loom.

ill keep you posted

Take it to chassis ground , the gauge should move to the hot end and the red light flash .
I don’t "do" diesels but I suspect it’ll be a double wire for the temp gauge , so you’ll need to Earth the other one to chassis to make circuit
