Saint Tricky 0 Posted October 3, 2008 Hi Just fitted a new heater matrix to my car. Took the coil off to gain better access to the hoses and the bloody thing has fallen down, broken an earth strap and disconnected some wires. Can you help please. Where does the earth strap connected to the coil go? Where does the white connector with green wire go? Where does the black wire connector go? Where does the black round connector go? Thanks ST Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VEEDUBBED 0 Posted October 3, 2008 Right mate, 1st 1 is your speedo sensor,just push it back on the sensor located on top of the gearbox,but check the small plastic retaining 'ears' that hold the sensor on the speedo drive as they are quite brittle. The white connector that connects to the (+/-) on the coil,use the two prongs on the coil that are closest to you. The black wire goes opposite the white connector on the coil. I did away with the earth strap as i can't see any use for it, a while back i heard that it was fitted to avoid fires or something. Just look for the redundunt hole it came off on the scuttle or bolt it back using the coils fixing bolts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waynos 0 Posted October 3, 2008 pretty sure the white goes on coil - black to coil + gearbox sensors as explained above. earth strap on mine goes off the top of the throttle body to the coil bracket Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saint Tricky 0 Posted October 3, 2008 You'r both diamonds, thank you very much. Can't believe swapping over my matrix was so easy. And got held up thanks to the coil dropping down. Thank you again ST Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
