Trying to identify whats described on the wiring diagram as the "Main terminals on bulkhead" would they be what I have ringed in red?



Also trying to source two of the 3 cylindrical Lucas relays for the same vehicle, according to the daigram they are all the same rating, they dont look like TR6 relays so could they be Ford?

Any help ? I believe that originally a "spare" fuse box lid was used to cover them?





The far more common and readily available square relays will do the job but if you want the original look.... Lucas round relay


doesn't have 87a but I don't think any of the relays use that (made when not energised) terminal?

Hi Phillpot, that's a great picture that helps a lot, if you have any more of the wiring under the bonnet, particularly the thick stuff around the battery and starter motor that would also help.

Again thak you very much, just one point, they are from a 3000m or Taimar as there are some minor differences like the vent on the RHS?

Taimar (and it looks a bit different to that now wink )
Ok, just comparing it to mine which has a ledge just below, did that original arrangement on yours have a cover over those wires? On mine I would have thought the wires should go behind that black cover?

So it's a coloured wiring loom, for an earlier version of the 3000M than what you have, AND it is for a LHD car...or it's something else.
Adrian@
Its from Autosparks for RHD 1976 onwards 3000m, they come with coloured wires as standard instead of the standard all black with heat shrink colour indicators, would have been extra for an all black loom would you believe.
