Early Plus 2 missing light relay
Posted: Tue Dec 24, 2019 6:21 pm
I became attached for many years to the idiosyncratic headlight operation of my first Plus 2.
But I have now found towards the end of the rebuild of the new car that I am missing a relay and the wiring diagram gives no help in finding a replacement.
The relay is between the light switch and the column switch.
It gets power from a blue wire from the light switch.
It sends power to the column switch via a brown/blue wire. (Frankly, I think a bad choice of colour!)
It also sends a brown/purple wire to one of the limit switches operated when the LH headlight closes,
and there is a mysterious blue and black wire which seems to turn up at C2 on the headlamp relay under the bonnet!
If I knew what happens inside it I could no doubt easily replace it. Any help would be appreciated. And Happy Christmas to to all. Regards, Bill
