Rear Lights
« on: January 31, 2017, 12:24:59 PM »
Just in case anyone is unfortunate enough to need replacement lights.....

Mine being the last 4thirty kit expected to be sold in the UK, the part numbers on my lights appear different to those I've seen mentioned on the forum; Ten Pin's rear light wiring details [which were a huge help - thanks TP] stated the rear lights:

Left to right they are:
157516   157514            --------          157513   157515

The two outer lamps 157516 and 157515 are wired the same, as are the two inner ones.
Using the superseal connectors pin nos

Lamp      pin #     function     wire colour
157514    4         common     white/black stripe
&             3         reverse      red/blue stripe
157513    2         not used
               1         Fog            yellow

157515    4         common     white/black stripe
&             3         side           green (thin)
157516    2         indicator     green/black stripe
               1         brake         green (thick)

My lights are:

Outer - 185670 and 185671
Inner - 185668 and 185669

On the inners 185668 and 185669, there is a minor wiring configuration needed:

Pin 4 = common = white/black stripe - as previous
Pin 3 was reverse red/blue stripe, my light part numbers = not used
Pin 2 was not used, my light part numbers = reverse = should be red/blue stripe
Pin 1 = Fog = yellow - as previous
If it doesn't fit first time, use harsh words...!

Ah, that's because those part numbers were for a 3Sixty. Here's a PDF which I wrote and details both 3Sixty / 4Thirty and MR2 / Cougar variations:

Wow, thanks TP.

Are there any diferences in the physical appearance between the 3sixty and 4thirty? Or is it just the wired configuration?

It took me a while to do the front, but all lights now working including the main and gated-'dip' beam and the DRL LED strips.

Would have been a lot more difficult without the wiring diagrams kindly sent to me by Dangerrous, and, the info you guys have put on this forum.

Compliments to Ten Pin and CdRsKuLL. Life would be a hell of a lot more difficult for us first time builders without this site for reference.
