Okay mystery solved. It was a throw type relay.(on or off)
I traced the grey wire and black wire from the relay through the bulkhead (required the removal of the glove box and the kick panel etc. ) along the top of the sills, into the boot to a keyed switch beside the licence plate lights . It was some sort of immobiliser, home made no doubt . I imagine the ignition earth was isolated until the key was turned. Anyway ,it was ripped out and the relay binned. Did I mention I hate when someone messes with wiring. Next job is to purchase a Ballast Resistor (not cheap for what it does) which was also removed by Dr Frankenstein (I am assuming he was the previous owner). The quest continues. |
