Hi, bare with me please. Is there just the ten track ribbon cable plugged into the steering wheel module, there appears to be additional connections for a five track ribbon cable too? My hazards and indicators are not working, it’s been a while since I’ve had my head under the dash and the car has been in somebody else’s care for a while.

Does this help? There's a 10 pin and a 5 pin and you can put them the wrong way around... I've drawn on mine with permanent pen. You can see you need the 5 pin ribbon connected.



Should be easy to test the pins for the correct way around with a multimeter

Shout if you need me to take more photos of them in place if you need to trace the cable.

5 Pin cable runs up towards the connector on top of the steering column

Thanks, that was very helpful. The TVR community is a great resource of information and kind people. I found that the lousy garage I entrusted my P&J with, had removed the 5 track ribbon cable. Due to the ‘no name and shame’ rules, please feel free to private message me if folks would like to know a garage to avoid. MOT booked for the 3rd November, getting very excited to to back on the road.
