3.8 Bonnet loom earth connectors
#1 3.8 Bonnet loom earth connectors
Top left are 4 earths that come from the proximal end of the bonnet loom.
2 of them have small brown collars on them.
There is only 1 earth that comes out of the 8 pin plug and it needs to provide earth for all 4 of these. SO there has to be a skip earth between the left hand 2 connectors. Now I assumed that this is the two brown collar earths but I can't find any two connected earths on my new bonnet loom. Bastards.
Before I just make a skip wire, am I missing something here?

Solved my own problem. The "skip" is made by two ring earth connectors that bolt to the bonnet. The longer of the 4 wires out of the loom then goes into the second row of the 8 row connector.
If I can put up a picture for posterity I will..

If anyone knows how to get Google pics to show a photo rather than a link I'd love to know.
