Title: Location of Earth Ring Post by: capriblu on September 02, 2013, 10:00:01 PM I have a wiring diagram for my 1980 Coupe which shows a main 12 point earthing ring somewhere near the front bulkhead/steering rack ?? I need to find (suspect poor earth for peculiar behaviour for certain gauges in instrument cluster).
Before I search aimlessly for this please can somebody give me a few pointers exactly where I should be looking. Assume it is on engine bay side somewhere near steering rack????? Any help appreciated - Thanks, Andrew Title: Re: Location of Earth Ring Post by: MattNoVAT on September 03, 2013, 06:40:19 AM IIRC if you remove the main speedo binnacle it's behind that, bolted to the inside of the bulkhead.

I know this for a fact as I've had the instrument binnacle out of my car more frequently than I've had the car out of the garage! Title: Re: Location of Earth Ring Post by: capriblu on September 03, 2013, 12:54:57 PM Thanks for the advice chaps -
I've also had the instrument binnacle off on numerous occasions in the past but couldn't recall seeing an earth point - I'll have a look this evening, no doubt I'll find it somewhere behind the spaghetti like wiring ...... Thanks again ......... Title: Re: Location of Earth Ring Post by: thecolonel on September 03, 2013, 08:09:46 PM I have also found them bolted to the steering support.
