Someone fit my digi dash !!!

[LEWI007]

Got a bit of a situation here, after cuting all my mk1 dash up and getting the clocks in and stripping every single wire and making long wires to joing each wire seperately, half the things on the digi dash arent working, my cassette player no longer powers up, and i think the transducer isnt in right cos it doesnt count miles or show what speed im going.

Wanna know if theres anyone local ish that i can atleast pay to help me sort it out, cos i havent got a clue with all these wires, and i want my dash putting back together

You're fitting it wrong, it should be in here



What wires have you cut (on the car side) to fit it? I'm assuming you're just chopped the loom that plugs into the standard dials?

[LEWI007]

Cut the old plug off, then followed the guide and joined every wire to the correct places.

took the old transducer off the engine, screwed the new one in, pu the wires in right places, there was a black wire on the transducer and it didnt say where it went so i just put it to positive thats propably wrong but i dont know.

and the only thing that is wired up is the clocks, none f the butons in the dash are wired up maybe that has something to do with the cassette not working ?

havent got a clue really its doing my head in.

most wires match up so fuk knows what your doing. you probs blew a fuse.

[LEWI007]

Well, when i press the left indicator down, the left indicator light comes on, when i press that lever backwards to put the lights on the left indicator light comes on, and the right indicator light doesnt come on but i hear a loud high pitched noise coming off the fuse box..ffs i dont know what im doing with this elecctric stuff.

[brainsnova]

did you run the two wires from the indicator stalk to the clocks

[LEWI007]

theres one wire on the stalk for the left indicator, i put that on and theres one for the right indicator, i put that on to the right indicator wire on the dash and thats all i did.

are all the browns earthed and blacks switched live.

[LEWI007]

i know theres a brown earthed in the engine bay somewhere, and theres 1 or 2 earths on the back of the dash, and i think all the black ones are wired into the black one on the clocks.

does not having all the switches and stuff in the dashboard plugged in make a difference ?

[brainsnova]

if theres no hazard light switch or headlight switch then yes that will effect it and iirc theres 4 brown and 4 black that go to the nova 1 brown 1 black.
