#1 Dash 12v-10v power supply

Post by Pete Gant » Tue Jun 11, 2013 12:34 am

Hi
Can someone please identify which is the 12 volt side of the 12v- 10v Dash transformer.
There is a marking "top" on the unit with and "arrow above one terminal, and a letter "B" and a arrow above the second terminal.
One would think that the letter "B is the 10v side is this correct.
Thanks

Figure No. 49 of the factory manual shows 12 volts going into Terminal B. This will be a solid green wire coming from Fuse No. 7, which is switched by the ignition. The regulated voltage comes from Terminal I and Terminal E is ground. The Haynes manual shows a similar arrangement, but without actually having a car in front of me, I have to trust the documentation at hand. Hope this helps!
