how to wire up new electrics?

[bmcecosse]

Good grief........ the fuel pump wire should NOT be touched. It's not fused - and by all accounts you need all the fuse protection you can get...... You want a GREEN wire....... Go to the fuse links for that. And what would be the point of putting a fuse on the negative lead??????? Did they really not teech you any electricity at skool??

sorry. i have done it by attaching to an empty terminal and to the body of the car. it works fine only when ign is on and i have changed the fuse to the right wire. i have to say that although my lack of knowledge may be frustrating to you it is the reason this forum is here and i am only really asking for help - there's no need to be rude. i appreciate that you are one of the most knowledgable people on the forum but if i dont do some things wrong i'll never be able to do things right.

Only trying to firstly interpret what you are doing, and secondly save your car from the flames!!

May I suggest a wiring diagram would explain it?

There is an excellent simplified and colour coded diagram that Barry drew up - at the top of this section. Print it out and laminate it - and carry it in the car......
