Mk2 wiring pictures/help please (scala 92)

Post by Jack92 »

Hey guys.

As some of your know I've finally got round the starting the Rocco and it appears that's the wiring has seen a lot better day, if possible could somebody take some pictures for me? Or shed some light on how these would be wired.

The rear lighting loom as pictured

The boot light switch

Rear of the fuse box

Under the steering wheel

Yeah I know there's a lot there, but I don't know what's right and what's wrong anymore lol.
Thanks
:-)

Some images of what I found

Those blue things are known as scotchloks, and are the work of Satan. If that's the rear lights, i'm guessing it has (or had) a towbar fitted. They should be removed and replaced with a decent joint. Solder and heatshrink for preference.

To be honest a picture or two isn't going to help you - you really need someone with a mk2 to come to you.

Failing that, the very least you need to do is get hold of a Haynes manual with the relevant wiring diagrams - so you know if everything that should be there is there.
