I don't doubt you are right, but I cant get my head around that.
The earth is to the body at both points, and where the double connector is, should be the feed to both the dash and the front of the same side. But the dark blue left coming down the column seems to feed the left front indicator and right dash indicator. And vice versa.

I'll take your word for it..
I have changed the diagram back.
Thanks for the pickup on the white.
Please feel free to let me know if you see any other issues with this one.
I'd really like it to be right so, everyone can use it with confidence.

I've yet to check the colours listed by holden against the actual car. Hopefully they are all correct.
Its frustrating that some of these wires suddenly change colour at some connection points.

If you think its worthwhile, I can do a modified drawing with the indicators connected the way you have outlined, in case anyone wants to use it.




Thanks.

The coloured one is the easiest to follow. If you follow the dark blue wire from the LF turn signal all the way back to the Double connector at the column, then the light blue wire back out. It goes to the right hand dash indicator.
Right hand turn signal ends up at left dash indictor.

Hi, I decided to start a new thread, as the one I posted in last is ancient.

OK, so I found a wiring diagram in my old Max Ellery manual. It's hard to read so I copied it all across into a drawing. But as I work my way through copying the drawing I find some errors. Most obvious being that the wiring for the indicators suggest the LHF indicator is connected to the RH dash indicator, and vice versa. I can't imagine that is right. It also shows a provision for backup (reverse) lights, and that the wiring for the rear indicators interrupts the power for the tail lights, like the American style wiring. I know this is correct for utes, but mine has separate rear indicators, and the tail lights have 2 wires for stop and tail lights. I have no reverse lights, and no sender on the box. Its been about 25 years since I took it off the road but I know that's how mine is set up. Did I change my reverse lights to indicators back in the day and forget, or did some come this way? Either way there seems to me to be a few errors in the wiring diagram.
Could someone with some wiring knowledge and experience please run their eye over this and tell me if I'm wrong. I'd rather know now before I redraw a new diagram with details the way I see them.
Attached is my first drawing, exactly as per the book. The wiring in my FE is not the same layout or colour at the rear.

I also applied the same details in colour if that helps.

Been a while. Just like every other time I come back, a lot has happened. lots of cars have come and gone, but the FE stays, as always.
I'm now cruzin around in a little MG Midget for fun while I try and finish off a few other projects.
It's getting closer by the day, and I'm hoping I'm only weeks away from getting her on the road.
I'll attach a few images to the thread soon.

Hi all. I know this is a really old thread, but the links no longer seem to work. Does anyone have a wiring diagram for FE sedan? Prefer with some coloured highlights if there is any. Thanks.

Hi guys. Are these still available?

Be careful with the acetone. It leaves a milky white powdery residue on the rubber that can be hard to get off.
I use it, but not liberally, only in isolated spots.

you need to supply your own centres and they will do the drop band. Make 13s into 14s or get some 14 HT wheels and make 15s

Hi Glenn,

Any news on the leftovers?

BTW, how many meters are needed to do a sedan, how wide is the material and what's the cost end up being ?

Thanks.

In case anyone is interested, there is a company in Victoria that still make these...

Could always use CSIRO in Clayton for testing. Might cost a bit, but considering the amount of sales.....
