Guys
I began the installation today. Unscrewed the jammed plastic locking wheel.
CLOCKWISE. - Ok
Removed setscrews - eventually! Only one was an actual set screw and that
was jammed! - Ok
Dismantled trafficator -ok - Except for the last part that seemed impossible
to access! Cursed the designer and gave up!
After returning home (its a 50km round trip) and consulting web archives I
learn't that you have to rotate an access plate underneath to expose the
screws that will allow it all to come apart and expose the wiring at the
steering wheel end. Thats for tomorrow - and I'd like to get the whole job
done on this visit.
So I have questions regarding the re- wiring.
My car already has a working indicator switch on the dashbord but I was able
to look through the holes in the trafficator base and see that that there
are still four wires connected to it. I'm assuming two for the horn and two
for the indicators (I dont have access to a wiring diagram, all that stuff
is still in storage). That might mean the indicator wires aren't connected
at the steering box end. Or they still might be! But Im pretty sure the
trafficator could no longer operate my indicators. I hope to be able to have
access to a lift tomorrow which will give me a better view of whats
happening down there.
I looked at the Moto Lita horn push and it seemed to have only one
connection terminal? Do both horn wires go on this terminal? The wheel and
boss are with the car so I can't have another look.tonight to confirm.
Looking for answers before I set off for the car early Brussels time
tomorrow. I don't want to let the smoke out!
Sorry to push you guys!
Derek
