Subject:ECU Wiring Question
From:Scott Snyder

Hello,

I had to purchase a used wiring harness for my 81 Westy's ECU.
Unfortunately none of the wires are marked.  Using Bentley's, I think I have
all of them correctly identified except the wires to the thermo-time switch
and cold start valve.  According to Bentleys (24.12) the thermo t switch
wire is slightly longer than the wire for the cold start valve.  But, the
color of the plastic cases that surround the wire dont match up if they are
color coded. It only seems reasonable to me that the blue cased wire should
go to the cold start valve (which is blue) and the brown cased wire should
go to the thermotime switch (which is brown).  According to Bentley,
however, this is not so.

Could someone look at there cold start valve and help me out?

Thanks a million!
Scott
