Hello iv had this sj for a hole now and the old owner had to try and got wire the car to get it going cuz it had the ignition barrel smashed an what he did was bridge the two wires in the plug with a hair pin and touch the black and yellow one to the hair pin is this correct? I'm stuck

Im not 100% on the colours...
but one is +12v, and the other three are for accessories, ignition, and starter.

I would start with the fattest wire and touch them together individually...

OK, best way to find out which is 12v... get a bulb, connect it to a decent earth, and then connect in turn to each of the wires... when the bulb lights that is your main ignition wire :)

Are those wires supposed to be in the plastic connector ??

Don't look like the regular colours, is this a 410 or 413, I think it may be a spanish built model.

So white/ with yellow tracer = supply from battery.
Yellow / with green tracer = acc = radio
BYG = supply to fuseboad and therefore igniton. No idea what colour it is as it's not on chart.
Black/ with yellow tracer = starter motor solenoid.


So connect white with yellow tracer to the BYG wire = ignition on
Then flash black/with yellow tracer onto above connection to start


PS could you let us know what colour exactly is that BYG :thumbup:

Cheers Darrell.
