Ammeter wiring

Post by Capriscott »

Hi all, I have another wiring issue. My ammeter is not working so I have removed it and tested the coil and it is showing the correct ohms across both terminals.

Just need some help with the colour of wires and where they go. I know that the red is connected in the engine bay with the alternator, battery and other components. Just not exactly sure where the yellow wire goes. It wonders off into the loom in the dash and I don't want to start pulling it apart.

Any help to give me a head start would be great

Hi,
I find that these wiring diagrams are particulary helpful for most wiring problems.

That's a great link. I still couldn't find where the yellow wire goes to though!

Anyone else have an idea

I really don't want to start stripping out the loom
