[Guest bloke]

steve which donner (kebab) have you got, mine was an 86 glxi, and wired as terrybarrys instructions (it took ages to decipher but the haines diags help - one circuit at a time, although it had no mention of the instument cluster mentioned in this thread)

The Haynes manual is a joke (not) :angry: waste of money IMHO

 

It only has the same diagram as posted by Terry

 

If no one updates this thread by tomorrow night I will

hi it was a d reg sera but im not sure of the mod

 

 

1 thing i would like to know is this,,,,,,,,,shall i lob the loom in ??? if so do you all think ill get it sorted out or should i go to the scrap yard and drag a loom from a festa or escort or summit like that????

 

 

olly

[Dave R]

big job to drag a whole loom out, and prolly easier to stick with the one you got

[Guest TerryBarry]

I think that the Haynes diagram is complicated by the inclusion of the "econolights"

Has anyone ever seen a Sierra with these

 

The problem with using a Fiesta or Escort harness is the connectors to the column switches are all different - they even vary Sierra to Sierra

[Guest olly]

or should i go to the scrap yard and drag a loom

that would take all day...and I doubt it would help. You will cut your hands, have 10 times the number of wires you need and still not know which wire goes where

 

Stick with the VG loom, its clean, new and shiney...and lots of people here have experience and have got it working...

 

The problem is there are soo many different Sierra models about :gdit: I have the same instruments (although not a VG loom) that you have so that problem will be solved

 

Dave

PS You do know were the battery goes don't you

[Guest bloke]

just keep goin an youll get there!

 

an the pains manual does help sometines (i.e. the stalk wirin for one example)

[Guest olly]

As for the wire colours, unfortantly I have made my own loom so the colours won't help anyone

 

Dave

PS You will have loads of grief if you don't put the battery in the front

[Guest Battery Bill]

The amount of grief it took to work this out you wouldn't believe

Yes it must be hard to read it out of Mr Haynes manual

As for the wire colours, unfortantly I have made my own loom so the colours won't help anyone

Yes I know what you mean there we have a multicoloured loom but it seems to work ok though

Like the Battery in the boot idea actually
