Passenger side turn signal lights connections.


^^^^^
Would anyone have a picture for the wiring color code,
and the pin-into the light housing?

The pins are not designated in the manual.

Model year is 1986 3.2.

Thanks in advance,

Gerry

Yes,

But where to these wires terminate on the bulb contact pins?

I'll post some pics today.

After my wiring excursion, and more than a few hours reading/studying the OEM schematics, I came to the conclusion, that starting at the fuse block and tracing will get you where you need to go. BR=brown=ground, GrRt=grey/red-running light, SwGn=BlackGreen=turnsignal.
Oddly enough after staring and finger running schematics it started to make sense.

Yes, I agree.

However, the lamp housing pins are not marked on the lamp holder,
or the factory manual..

When I pulled the holder off, the wires (because they are short)
come off the pins.

Are you relying to figure which bulb is the turnsignal vs running light?

No, I'm trying to re-connect the wires to the correct pins on the bulb holder.

proporsche posted the correct colors, but need a picture of the connections at the
bulb holders.

I don't think it matters Gerry. Neither is earthed (ground). The current goes in one terminal, through the bulb, and out the other terminal.

Here's a couple of pictures of the front turnsignal on my '86 930. The ground spade (brown wire) goes on the metal part of the fixture. The signal wires go on the spades to the socket.
