Title: v6 engine loom wiring diagram
Post by: davieboy0312 on 09 March 2015, 17:44:22

Got a dilemma guys. Took the wiring loom off my x30xe about 2 years ago. Did number all plugs and made a list on a laptop. Now hard drive is knackered and I have lost the list.

Do know some of the plugs but not all. Is there a wiring diagram somewhere so I can check plugs and wire colours so I get in the right place :-[ :-[

Haynes will tell you everything you need for the 2.5/3.0 :y

Yep, Haynes is about the only source of wiring diagrams for the 2.5/3.0.

They go for about a fiver on ebay. :y

Have got one on its way. Is it idiot proof?

Well Haynes've long been suspected of being written by idiots, if that's the same thing?  ;)

They take a bit of deciphering and good eyesight from the Haynes manual, as they are printed rather small. A knowledge of the colours in German language is also an advantage. ;D You can always ask here if you have any queries. :y

Flicking between Haynes and the later Vauxhall one confuses the bejesuses out of me... the Vauxhall ones use English abbreviations, yet the German ones make sense, to me at least ::)

Looks like a weekend in the hut with a Haynes manual, a wiring loom a German translator and loads of cider  :D

German. Colour. English.

Rt.            Red.      Rd.   
Sw.          Black.    Bl.
Bl.             Blue.     Bu.
Ge.           Yellow.  Ye.
Br.            Brown.   Bn.
We.           White.    Wh.
Or.            Orange.  Og.
Gr.            Grey.       Gy.
Gn.            Green.    Gn.
Vi.             Violet.     Vt.
Ro.            Pink.       Pk.
Li.              Purple.   Pu. 
D??           Dark??    D??   Eg DBr. Dark brown.  DBn.
H??           Light??    L??   Eg HBl.  Light blue.    LBu.

Primary colour is always first... so BlWe/BuWh is Blue with a white trace.

Number after wire colour is the gauge of the wire in mm².

If a wire stops in a boxed number, then it is continued on the circuit of that number, often with capital letters... eg WEG, which relate to the circuit group that the wire leads from/to.

Haynes numbers the circuits as per the Opel originals, 100 tracks per page.

Once you get started it will make sense. :y
