Roearn Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Can anyone help me. I'm trying to connect up the wiring on my new build. I've asked Caterham but they are a bit slow in coming back to me.1. There is a lead coming off the LH side of engine. I think it's for oil pressure, with a dedicated round plug. It has three wires. Black, Green and Green/Orange. I cannot find anywhere to connect it to.2. At the front of the car, around the radiator. Two female tab connectors. One Black wire and one Black/Brown. Cannot find where to connect to. I've got wires to the horn and radiator fan. What else is there? Regards, Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted February 22, 2023 Member Share Posted February 22, 2023 I can send you the wiring diagram, but not until Thursday evening. Please could you tell me your email address in a Private Message. Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mic Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 The round plug connects to the lead from the oil pressure switch. The wires at the front are not used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks as if they aren't in the wiring diagram at the back of the Assembly Guide. But they are in the TA 2013 diagram: Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roearn Posted March 5, 2023 Author Share Posted March 5, 2023 Mic & Jonathan,Thanks very much for that info. Why do Caterham seem to be reluctant to answer wiring queries and supply diagrams. Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Vine Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 #5 Why do Caterham seem to be reluctant to answer wiring queries and supply diagrams.IME, they're usually very quick to answer build queries (including wiring). But as far as wiring diagrams are concerned, they stopped publishing openly around 2015 when the text-based Assembly Guides were replaced with the IKEA-style pictorial ones. Getting them to release the latest wiring diagrams is challenging, to put it mildly. I've tried, but with limited success. JV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roearn Posted March 7, 2023 Author Share Posted March 7, 2023 JV. My experience is that they reply well. I've just had a reply from Caterham to my wiring query. Two weeks later. Seems Lee was out of office. Made me smile, as I've tried to keep questions to a minimum and not ask anything stupid. Roger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
