tysn Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Ok while looking at my soob, i noticed a group of 5 wires that had been cut off that are pretty close to the master brake cylinder, the wires are as followed color stripe Black w/ white stripe bluew/ red stripe Green w/white stripe green black what do this wires connect to, btw the car is a ea82 carb. i think one of them connects to the started via ignition switch meaning that wire isnt anywhere to be found. as for the others? any help or wire diagrams would be greatly appreciated.

GeneralDisorder Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Could be anything. Unfortunately no one here will be able to help much unless you give us a picture at least. Wire colors are basically useless. It could be for a connector that goes nowhere (accesory you don't have), or it could be important. But wire colors are repeated over and over throughout the harness. They are not specific to an exact circuit. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brokebill Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 i popped the hood on my 86 GL ea82 2wd 5spd carbed wagon and i have 3 sets of test connectors (i think) that are in that area and have all the colors you describe (plus some more). plus the master cylinder itself has 2 wires going to it. is yours a running working car that everything works on? or are those mystery wires keeping it from running? do all your dash lights (brake,etc.) come on when the key is turned forward, engine off? good luck, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tysn Posted August 24, 2008 Author Share Posted August 24, 2008 so i went to the nearest wrecking yard and looked on a 86 fwd wagon and it had 4 out of the 5 wires i mentioned in my first post i found the following according to the one in the wrecking yard. Black w/ white stripe - hooks to the starter bluew/ red stripe (?) Green w/white stripe Some White circular connector maybe test green Some White circular connector maybe test black Hooked to some wire by the tranny dipstick. the blue with the red stripe is the one that seems to be the one in question, i went to the dealership and got a copy of the wiring diagram but no color coded wires. i hooked the black w/ white stripe and did get the starter to crank via the key, both the timing belts and rotor spin freely it seems, where is the fuel pump located on the carbed ea82? is there some wires that signal to the pump? is there a wire that hooks somehow to the coil for start up?
