Hey

In about 3 weeks time I should be looking at getting the Clubby back together, but, being the silly plonker I am, I took the wiring loom off without putting any marking any of the wires! :nugget: I thought I'd be able to remember, but no such chance, too many other things to remember!

So I was wondering if there's anyone in the Derby/Notts area with a late 70's (unmolested) Clubman who might be willing to pop round for an hour or two and let me use their car as a reference whilst I wire mine up? I'm pretty confident with most of it, its just the engine bay internals I'm slightly worried about, like where the main earth point is and what should be attached to it! It won't take too long, just an evening, if that, and there'd be food and drink provided :grin:

Is there anyone who might be willing to help??

Ta!

(I may also need a car for the brake line conversion, but I'm gonna try to tackle that myself - so thats ok for the time being!)

The wiring diagrams in the WSM are very good, and unles the wires are all cut then most will fit back to their approximate position without too much trouble...

[Purple Tom]

None of them are cut, I just remember it being a bit of a bugger to get some of them off the car, although I can give it a shot

What is the WSM? (something service manual?)

Workshop manual


Or women shop more....

[Purple Tom]

oh yeah :grin:

and its true, they do shop more :tongue:

Most of the wires will only go in one place and thats were they reach to.

but you can mix up the dizzy/coil / oil pressure switch wires :wink:
I know

ive fitted a loom into my 83 mini, there were a few hiccups with what wire does what etc, but a few minutes slaving over a bible and all became clear
