crossed wires
Posted: 11 Apr 2012, 20:19
can anyone help with what wires go where. I have removed my old D.F water boxer engine to helicoil snapped exhaust bolts and while she was out i have renewed the clutch kit, water pump and fitted new stainless steel flow and return pipes and renewed the complete exhaust. I took my time and on the hole i am well pleased with the result but i think i have crossed some of the connections from the oil switch. The oil light stayed on for approx15 minutes then went out, i looked at it and thought that the switch had given up the ghost(small amount of oil weeping out the top of the switch). So today i changed the switch and still the light remains on, the engine runs well and very quietly for her 106,000 miles. I think i have connected the push fit wire connections which control the oil switch, coolant temp and idle valve wrongly, dose anyone know which is the correct color combination.
