anybody able to hint/help/point me in the direction needed to be able to remove the wiring clips/sockets?. need to remove from one socket & fit to another. or do i just cut the wires & solder/heatshrink em :?: :?: :lol:


1st pic is of fuse board connectors.

Image

2nd pic is of BEM connector.

Image

wiring loom was cut from a BA Fairmont going into my Futura so i can run a clock.

have put in her replacement clock ....... now i want one lol. the lighter background is a lot betterer than the darker Fairmont background. might even grab another clock & customize a background :shock: :roll: :lol:

rechecked wiring looms & just needed to add one wire, hopefully it's sitting in correctly now [ :?: ] will need to workout where i will need to connect to tho....... currently NO idea . . . . . ..... says cluster. vents are almost ready for new foam [just need to cut to desired thickness], then fit. have bought a replacement seat base [foam & fabric] which needs a clean & fitment. will need to wrap & fit the extra wiring i have/will be fitting to car. then see if it all stills works...... :lol: :lol: :roll: .

bought some aftermarket dash covers for her BF & the BA ...... mine fits but hers......... turns out the windscreen is approx 5mm too close to the dash at it's base !!? so will not fit properly :cry: [she was NOT impressed with that!] so might leave hers off for now :?:

will be doing a bit more tomorrow so i can start/move car from where it has been sitting.

fingers crossed :mrgreen:


edit - anyone able to tell me [drop hints] as to what connects to plug 171 [cluster] pin 19A?. i know the clock goes there .... but what else??

Can get a pic in the following days of my ef xr6 if you would like to see what it looks like? xr has a grey interior hence I went with grey vynal for the headliner.

Cheers Johnny.
