I'm impressed with that wiring mate! does everything still work?

Just need to get one spade connector, and charging my battery at the moment ready to test them all tomorrow.

Just this much:



That wiring on the left still needs sorting out, its a bit tight , but when I've done all the wiring inside it might free it up, but if not, I'll re-do it .

thing is, i have about 2 or 3m of the convulated conduit in my van, but it's earmarked for a cctv job in the coming weeks, i wonder if i could swipe it without anyone knowing?

Well...a weird day on this mini today , charged the battery last night, linked it all back up in the mini, then came to test the electrics. Now for the weird bit, the hazards work, but the indicators don't, and full beam works, but flash doesn't, and also I think the rear windscreen de-mister may not work too, but couldn't test it. So either I conected something wrong somewhere, but I'm sure I havn't as I numbered each wire, the fuse box is connected up wrong (By the way if you have any pictures of your fuse box thing, that holds four fuses, could you post them up so I can see if mine is connected up right ) or this wire goes somewhere, but I don't know where:



It seems to be constantly live when the ignition is on , and its light green with a brown stripe down it, can anyone help?

On a lighter note, a freebie , work were throwing away this:



A load of this clear red tubing, and I thought it might come in handy for extending the washer fluid line, and it did, its a perfect fit, just got to get it fitted in the boot now .

Thats great thanks, don't think some of my wires are the same colour, etc, but recognise some of them, and might be able to work it out.
