Hi gents

As I progress in the refurbishment of my car I felt puzzled with the wiring...

I took a lot of picture BEFORE I removed everything, but of course there's always a missing one that shows what you need to know...
And this is where I stand…

I guess some wires goes to the horns? But I cannot figure out the other ones…
I cannot make sure where to plug and connect the wires in yellow and with « ? »
Could you help me ?

Dear friend

Write me free of charge to l.peterssen@me.com

And I will guide you on the process of reconnecting everything back in place

Nevertheless, from the pictures posted your harness is not in good shape. It needs someone like me to rebuilt it.

If you want to connect as is , which is not recommended write me to guide you step by step no charge

Best regards
L.peterssen

Hi

Thanks a lot for your proposal  :) I’ll contact you directly 👍👍
May I reassure you… the pictures are before I partially renew the wiring, and they are from the origin, BEFORE I intend to renew it
I almost collapsed when I discovered the battery / starter cable routed without the corresponding brackets and very close to the engine block (less than 2cm…) and the cable was partially without insulation… (see last pic below...)
I enclosed some pics about some yummy discoveries I made… including related to the fuel hoses…

Everything detailed in this video including timing chain desynchronized … : https://youtu.be/AwLPJmehM58
