Does anyone know what the Pink with a white stripe ( KW )wire on a RH Heater Stag is for? I am rewiring and this wire is just waving around in the breeze and I can't find it in the wiring diagram.
Of the top of my head that is the positive feed for the radio/stereo. Will check for you though. ---- Groges at Home wrote ----
White with pink stripe definitely is the radio from ignition switch. But you have mentioned pink with white stripe. Not sure if pink is a main colour though? ---- Groges at Home wrote ----
Only other one I can think of is 'ballast resistor wire' to ignition coil. That one turns from solid white to white /pink. ---- Groges at Home wrote ----

Attached are photos of the LHS and RHS Stag engine mounts. On Friday I visited Triumph Spares in Fairfield and spoke to Richard and he confirmed also that the LH mount is an anti-vibration mount. However he has found that they fail so he has been fitting the solid mount to both sides. The engine in our Stag was built by Brad A. 11 years ago but I have not had time to have a look. The engine has a ceramic coated stainless steel extractor exhaust and our car does not suffer any NVH or any vibrations anywhere. The KW wire is a ballast resistor wire that runs from ignition switch to coil. If the 6v coil is replaced with standard 12v coil there will be a separate 12v feed. See top right on attached diagram The radio feed is WK. Mike regards Laurie.

Groges H.: Thanks to all for their help, when it was pointed out it jumped out of the wiring diagram, even printed as a thick line so thick people could read it!

Groges H.: Now, even I should be able to see a Pink with white stripe wire on this diagram! Not bad quality, thanks Mike.
