Title: Indicator wiring in the car?
Post by: probedb on December 23, 2008, 12:56:31 PM
Does anyone know where I can take a feed for the left and right indicators from in an FD?

I\'ve got some Ganador mirrors with indicators built in but not sure where to take a feed from?

Ta :)

Paul.

I\'d have thought your best bet would be to have a look for the FD wiring diagram PDF.

Cheers Ben, already got it but actually trying to find the wiring is a different matter ;)

I may just take the wires from the existing side repeaters and drag them along the inside of the front arches since they won\'t be needed anyways. Need to get some time to have a play.

That would be your best bet, you won\'t need them on you wings and it would be a shame to leave the old cables tucked away somwhere filling up with water and shorting out.:Thumbsup!

From memory, they are green with a white stripe and green with a black stripe, I can check the diagram, but were painting the workshop floor and I dont want wet feet!

Had this diagram in my car file since I installed my Toad Alarm. The exact same pick up points will suffice for your indicators if required.
Green / Black for left - Green - White for right.
