Derek, brown is horn, circuit is completed to ground no extra wire, other
three are turn signal, solid green should be power, then routes to green
with xx or green with yy through the control head to operate blinkers,
careful here, don't pinch anything when you shove it all back in, and make
sure all the connectors are screwed down tight, not a job you want to repeat
over and over again, nor do you want to hit metal and melt the thing.
from Patton Dickson's website:

control head wiring changed.

Subject: [Healeys] Help re installation of Moto-Lita wheel AND horn push on
adjustable column.
> 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.

> I looked at the Moto Lita horn push and it seemed to have only one

> Looking for answers before I set off for the car early Brussels time
