Dash loom and engine loom

[stockies]

Hey all, having more problems with my VL. Yesturday the switch that controls the power: ACC, ON, START melted. I can't see why this has happened. Switch has been replaced and now the car won't start. Friend of mine has told me i may need a new distributor.

I need a dash and engine wiring diagram to check the rest of wiring, so i have no more surprises. I want to make sure that i'm not going to have anymore problems with the wiring in this car.

not exact diagrams but they give you a rough estimete where all the wires are

Mate, thats just wat i needed. Now my VL looks funny with no dashboard or engine wiring. Trying to find a replacement dash loom for it now. Appernetly it matters if, you have a tacho, cruise control and a manual trasmission.

Can't find a loom that will just replace mine.

VL is going to the scrap metal yard now. To much work to replace all the looms and computer.

to much work? just go get another loom and replace it

Yeah i know. I found a Calais loom for it. Thinking it would be the best thing to put in there. But when i removed the heater and the heater box thingo. I found a whole heap of rust behind it. Apperently the pipes have been leaking for some time. Now i know why the air con wasn't working. I think thought some cowboy has tried fixing it, because the pipes aren't in the same place as they are shown in a workshop manual.

I bought it as a daily, so i could do up my VN. I cbf fixing this VL.

oh ok, rust is a brutal enemy to every vl

Yeah VL's are very prone to rust... thankfully my VL has recently been resprayed so shouldn't be too much of a problem... its a shame you're wrecking the VL, but then again if i was in your position i'd probably do the same thing... Good luck with the VN anyway mate!

Is the RB30 from the VL going in the VN

No motor and gearbox went to my mate, as did the interior.

VN is hopefully getting a 5 liter heart:yeah:
