    Default Wiring Help anyone??

    I have just noticed that i have three cut wires under the hood of my newly acquired VR Commo.

    Two are labeled. Temp & Oil the other is not. My temperature gauge is not working, and i'm not too sure about oil..? so i am guessing these wires are for the dash. (They go through the firewall)

    Can anyone tell me what the third wire might be, these three wires are bundled together. And also where are the temp and oil wires supposed to be wired to? Im having troubles reading the wiring diagram.

    Thanks
    Simone

    Not sure if this helps. The hole where the wires come out of the firewall is basically behind the brake booster.

    On further inspection, i noticed these are probably not supposed to be taped together, and the labeled wires actually have 4 wires in one. So this is what i have:

    Labeled OIL : 4 wires
    yellow /w blue stripe
    light blue
    light green
    black

    Labeled TEMP: 4 Wires
    Orange
    White
    Black
    Blue

    Non labeled wire
    Black /w white stripe (Looks like a double wire, kinda like head phones that could be split, if you know what i mean!)

    definately not standard, its possible the previous owner had aftermarket gauges hooked up if they are labled oil and temp. if they arent connected to anything inside the car just pull em out.


    My temperature gauge is not working
    this is usually the case if somebody has added an aftermarket water temp gauge as they would remove the factory water temp sender and put in an aftermarket one for their gauge, if you look where the top radiator hose connects to the engine there should be 2 sensors just below it which should have wires coming off them, if one doesnt you might be able to reconnect it if the previous owner replaced the factory sender.

    hope that helps
