Hiya folks me again!

Last night I'd changed the terminals on my estates fusebox(four fuse box)
Car is a 1980

I have a fault where if I turn the ignition on the red light and sidelights come on and stays on until I remove the two brown wires at the fusebox!

Does anyone have a wiring diagram of the fusebox and also for the car?

I have tried a few different positions for wires but always went back if it didn't work

Terminals as follows for fuse box left side first
1-white for ignition and white for coil positive
3-brown from lighting switch and brown from starter solenoid
5-lightgreen/white from ignition
7-red from lighting switch

Right side of fuse box
2-green to stop lamp switch hydraulic or mechanical and green to indicator flaser unit.
4-purple to headlamp flasher switch on steering column
6-light green/orange to combined windscreen wiper and washer unit
8-red/green to nearside and offside tail lamps,both front side lights and number plate lights
Fuse box is as follows
1-----2
3-----4
5-----6

This looking at the fuse box when you take the cover off to see the fuses.
Hope this help

Thanks mate, followed the wiring diagram, with assistance from a wiring guru, got everything working as it should

A couple wires in the wrong places(green and green/orange mixed up)

Then the sidelight feed mixed up with a stereo power wire

The lack of all indicators/hazards was foxed easy enough(cleaned relays and pulled switch out the dash slightly, the plug has Been butchered!!)
