a few questions as I just bought a 1976 golf ls

[chesymoon]

anyone can please figure this out?

this picture shows that T10/3 RED WIRE has been cut. this one is for tacho (from previous owner)


and I found this wire on fuse box..
It's from yellow pin pulg #14. It's F14


I just wanted to confirm if those 2 wires are the same one..

my car is 1976 golf LS and it's different diagram from the UK mk1 club wiring diagram.

Can anyone who has the same model as mine confirm this, please?

plus please figure out for brake warning light please..

please...

Yellow plug is for the rear harness, tail lamps, fuel guage, rear wash wipe if fitted. the early cars had the tacho feed seperate from the relay plate.

Try to find a manual by tractor & mechanical, has a good colour wiring diagram in it for the early Golfs.

thank you.

btw. you mean tacho wire is direct from the ignition coil to dash?

and any idea if mine is supposed to have brake warning light?

also found these in the engine bay.

this is from brake servo? one vacuum line hose is blocked by a screw.


I don't know what this is. (its near gearbox, and front of radiator..)
one wire is cut....


is my carby looks alright?.. auto choke seems weird..


I'm gonna change the rubber mount as I can hear air leak..
Is it a easy job?

Yeah, the "book" in question is the one !!! get a copy.

tacho wiring was listed as an option in the "book" and has wiring diag to suit. Basically it is from the RED wire at position 3 on the dash multi pin plug to the coil ( same side as the points ) shows it being green and from memory having a connector down near the relay plate / fusebox.

the "choke" as you call it is the idle shut of valve, follow the wire over the top and to the drivers side of the carb and there you will find the electric choke.
