Ok so I am wiring up a new car stereo into my 78 jag. Now i have no lights, dash lights, indicators.

Sorted dash board, fuel gauges etc.

I still have no indicators or lights


Ideas??? Fuses are fine.....where to next? I have no wiring schematics

 

I presume the pics show your stereo wiring? Those junction strips are not Jaguar items.

The panel lights should have voltage from the red/white wire(s) coming off the rheostat. Voltage *to* the rheostat is red/blue wires as I recall. I start at the rheostat and work from there

Yes, and these are the only wires I have been tampering with, so how would they have an impact on the wiring system of dash etc? Thx again

 

Also i have no headlights, indicators now

 

It's easy enough to jiggle other wiring into failure mode when rooting around in there....loose connection, most likely

Cheers

Now things are getting a little weird.....multiple circuit failures

I don't have a snappy answer. Just have to check each circuit step by step. Do you have a schematic?

Cheers

No I don't, am waiting on manual to arrive in post.... the previous stereo wasn't factory, and perhaps they hooked up some dodgy wiring circut?? Just weird how dash/indicator and head lights all stopped

 

Updated, no indicators or lights
