Subject: [TR] TR6 Overdrive wiring questions (A type)
Hi all
I managed to find an od gearbox for my early TR6 and have completed the
"mechanical" portion of the install. Now comes the hard part (for me) - the
wiring. I've read everything that I could find on the internet including Mark
Gibson's very helpful conversion notes but I have a few questions - some will
seem obtuse but I want to get it right. I purchased the installation kit from
Quantum Mechanics so I have all the correct bits. Now for my inane questions:
1. The routing for the switch wiring isn't obvious to me. Does the wire enter
the column begind the light switch to come out of the bottom and run in the
"tray"" underneath?------------Yes
2. I've connected the upper"harness to the relay and fuse box and now need to
route the harness back to the switch and the gearbox. Is there a particular
route for this? I was thinking that I'd go around the back of the wiper motor
and through the same grommet as either the oil line or speedometer
cable.---------That will work fine.
3. That's another question - what is the correct routing for the speedometer
cable? ----------Straight out through the original speedo cable grommet and hole
in the dash, then down through the hole with and a 2nd grommet in the angled
brace on the dash by the fuel pump, then over the top of the transmission and
into a 90 degree angle drive adaptor in to the O/D tail shaft. If you don't have
an angle adaptor yet, the one Moss sells is really a good one , pricey but a
good part!
I may have more ?s as the day wears on but this will get me well on my way!
Thanks for any help and insight that you can provide.
best wishes
Steve
