|
|
hey guys,
new here and i have a 1960 morris major elite (am hoping the wires are similar/same colour to a morris minor ) and the flasher can for the blinkers has been removed (was actually stolen) so wires are just flopping around and blinkers dont work
so if it was not too much trouble would one of you guys be able to have a look at one of your minors (unless you have a major) or can look it up on a wiring diagram and let me know which colour wire goes to which position on the flasher unit
mine has a yellow wire and red wire joined together that looks to go to 1 terminal
2 x light brown wires that go to another terminal
and finally a single wire which is either dark brown or black that goes to a third terminal
any help will be much appreciated, thanks
jeff

Looking at the colour codes from the first link given by Grant, and the colours you have posted Jeff, it appears that it has been rewired.

cant confirm either way mate as plugs that go on flasher look very original and wiring doesnt look like its been messed with
really need a wiring diagram for my model i guess to at least follow wires and match that way
everything is helpful though
thanks guys

I recently acquired a 59 Morris major series II, looks to be in original condition, if it ever stops raining here and I can step outside I'll try and locate the flasher unit and let you know what I find.

Had a quick look at the indicator switch and flasher. The leads to the indicator were blue, yellow and green. There were 6 (I think) leads into the flasher unit and they were yellow and red, didn't get time to track the 'spaghetti of leads' up the steering column.
