Hi,
Does anybody have a good picture (or wiring diagram) of the main 14-pin harness connector with the cap removed (the one that is connected to the main relay board).
I have a brown-white (maybe brown-gray) wire arriving at this connector and have no clue where it plugs in. Even worse...this wire is not referenced in Art Zaft 914-6 wiring diagram.
Thanks for any help.
Philippe

I don’t intend to confuse here, but this might help. I have a 914-4 wiring diagram that shows a grey/brown wire that runs between the back up lights and T14 terminal 4.

Caution: 914-4 and 914-6 may be different.

Check your back up lights and see if they have a grey/brown lead wire.

Both connectors at the 6 relay board are 14 pin.
The one going to the engine harness does not have a wire like your
photo. Maybe a Euro feature ?
I'll try to access the connector going into the relay board.

Ahhhhh.
Thank you for the update.
That black/blue wire in my photo had me worried

Posted by: Philippe Dec 22 2019, 10:19 AM

This is right. I meant the main harness connector and not the engine connector (both having 14 pins).

Nice! Thank you. What colour do you have on pin 9 (starting from the top, left side, 5th pin)?

Posted by: Philippe Dec 22 2019, 10:36 AM

So far I come to the following pin assignment (looking at the backside of the connector):
1 Yellow
2. Blue
3. Red
4. Green
5. Yellow/Red
6. Green/Black
7. Green
8. Green/Red
9. Not assigned?
10. Gray/Brown
11. Black/Red
12. Gray/Brown
13. Brown
14. Black/Purple

Appears to be brown with white tracer

I just checked my factory 6 and my new Kroon wire harnesses.
Both brown with a white tracer go to pin #9.

Wow.
Note to self;
schedule thorough harness cleaning

As i remember, there are a couple [2] of wiring color code errors on the 914-6 relay board in the Art Zaft diagram

Thanks a lot for the nice pics. I have the answer to my question!
Even if the tracer is different, the basic brown/white colour of pin 9 remains the same.
What still bothers me is the fact that this brown/white wire is not documented.
BTW Kroon did an excellent job. The welding work at the connector is well done.
Thanks to you all for the support.

I have wire harness envy...

Thank you !

Well a year and three months later (almost to the day) i believe I have the answer.
It is the wire for the switch incorporated in the shift knob of
Sportomatic cars.
The white car harness is re-wrapped. The yellow is untouched.

I agree, there is a factory six factory drawn wiring diagram out there, we have enlarged copies of it

Posted by: rgalla9146 Mar 20 2020, 09:56 AM

....what is it that you agree with ?
