I have a 1970 914/6. When I pulled the motor out, the 14 pin Main Harness that sits on the Relay Board in the engine compartment came apart. Thus I have no idea which wire goes where. I have 6 wires. (2 are grey and black and go to the transmission back-up switch/sender. 1 Green and brown and 1 Green and black go to the oil pressure and oil level senders. 1 Black and red goes to the coil and I'm not sure about the black and blue/purple.) I have attached a picture of the harness below.
I would enjoy any guidance on where to plug these wires. Car won't start and it keeps blowing fuses which I assume is either a problem with these wires or the ignition system/distributor needs an overhaul. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Your fired ...
You need to give the car to me .... LOL All kidding aside. No big deal. If you look closely at the black connector it should have little numbers. The schematic will have matching numbers. Just plug them back in the correct hole. I'm stripping down another 964 at work. While removing the 40# harness. One of the 6 pin versions behind the gauges came apart. I got lucky. It didn't explode like yours. |

I don't have a schematic for that part of the harness. I have the shop manuals for the 914 but not going back to 1970. The schematics are for other relay brackets and different main harnesses. Everything else is either too small to read, not in color or clearly wrong. |
