914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Wiring diagram HELP please..

Posted by: rick 918-S Apr 10 2004, 03:19 PM

I've looked high and low. I must have borrowed out both my manuals to a friend of mine. He has since moved away and I think lost them in the move.

So. I need a complete wire diagram for a 1972 914. I'm attempting to mate the engine harness from my 928 to the 914 relay board connection. I have the 928 manual on CD so I've got the engine side covered.

Anyone know of an online source?

Haynes has B&W diagrams, and Pelican has color ones. I think we've got 71 and 73, not specifically 72... But Haynes does.

There are, of course, also other color diagrams available from somewhere or another....

Jeff or someone that sees wiring diagrams floating around in their head when they sleep. My car is a 1972. For some reason I have a 1971 harness. I discovered I have a green/black wire. It passes through the relay board. The diagram shows it comes from # 86 Sportomatic (optional) one direction the wire travels from #86 to pin #6 on the relay board. #6 passes through the relay board to the out connector pin #3. Wire goes to an oil temp inducator.

My question is; What the heck is Sportomatic (optional)?

Where does the wire come from really?

I would like to us this wire for something else. What is it connected to under the dash?

Where do I begin to look for this wire on the dash end.

Sportomatic is the auto-manual transmission. Installed in 25 914-6es, and no production 914-4s. Though supposedly one or two prototypes.

Green/black is likely the oil temp sender wire. I believe that some/many/most 72s actually had that, though very few if any had an oil temp gauge. It is probably not connected to anything under the dash.

That's what I thought. I'm sick of looking at wiring for a while!
