2006 EC300 Dash Wiring
 

Good Morning,

I am in the middle of refurbing a 2006 EC300. The previous owner tore out all the wiring for some reason, cutting all the plugs out, etc....

I have it all running and charging now. I used the sticky above on getting DC without floating ground and worked great. I have all the lighting functioning now but I am stuck with the cut wiring at the dash. I have figured out the status lighting on the sides of the dash, however the 6 wires coming from the center portion of the dash are another issue....

I have the wiring diagram from the manual but I cannot make out the coding for the dash...There are 6 wires: red, black, blue, yellow, green and brown. Can anyone tell me what they are for?

Thanks

Mike

incase anyone else has this issue...

Red is switched power
Blue ground
Green and black are speedo sensor
White and brown I am still unsure about but must have something to do with tach...

Assuming same model in your region. Yellow wrap around ht lead for rpm (doesn't work that well) . If memory serves, I think the capacitor top left powers the blue backlight.

Thank You. Can you make out what the brown wire is power for?

No problem! Brown is clock. It needs to be wired to a 12v battery because it will flatten smaller batteries in a week or two. I fitted a small battery holder to my old ec just to have use of the clock for time cards and did without the rest of the time. Probably a legacy thing from the 4 stroke gassers with starter batteries from that period, only on a gasgas :D

Thanks for your time, much appreciated.

One last question...well maybe one last question... Does the yellow wire pick up its RPM signal from the firing signal to the coil?
