Ka clock wires?
Morning guys.
Another sunny Sunday morning.......Not!!! Just bought a Ford Ka clock on the EBlag. But it came without the plug. Anyone have a Haynes manual, or happen to know how to wire it up? It's got a 6 pin socket, I know 2 wires go to the dash light, and one seems to be blank. I could guess the wires, but frightend of blowing it up and wasting the 99p I paid.... Cheers David |

Here that's a nice clock
That'll sit nicely in my dash............Well, that's if I had one I lost track of Ford wiring mid way through the 90's !!?? See quite a few ka's at the breakers, i'll keep my eyes peeled for a plug The clock itself will only have a live & netural feed ( Bet you already know that though ) The backlight may have a dimmer circuit built in, this would explain some of the extra pins. Sorry mate, about as much use as an ash tray on a motorbike

Here you go David
Stolen from a post on the net ------------------------------------------------------- Ok looking at the pic which is of the back of the clock (with case removed) pins are-Top pair of pins (near the clock mech) Left is Batt + Permanant, Right is-ground, Next pair (down) Left is not used, Right is- illumination (leds), Bottom pair is Left Igh +, Right is not used, What i've done is join the batt and ign wires together and fed them from a battery (permanant live) as i only ran a batt pos, ground and panel lights wires into the headlining, I could'nt see the point of an ign supply as the clock needs to be fed all the time, All seems to work ok this way. ------------------------------------------------------------ Might be of some use Came from the last post here
