Hi again,
Replacing the headlight loom in my HJ.(twin h'light)
Loom starts from an 8? pin plug on firewall called the Lighting Harness Connector in the manual
How does the plug come out please ?
I have confirmed the existing plug has the same amount of wires (8) as the plug on the new loom
Brake fail
horn relay * 2 ?? green and black
High beam
Low beam
parkers ??
Right turn
left turn
Thanks in advance

I can't give you the layout of the pins, but the wire colours are: Light brown - brake fail. Dark green - horn power. Black - horn earth. Dark blue - right blinker. Light blue - left blinker. Purple - park lights. Light green - high beam. Light brown - low beam. I will have a look at my old looms next week, that might help more. Working in there sucks! Consider taking the entire mudguard off if you need to get in there for a really good look. Or trace it from the other side. If you can see the wire colours that will make it easy. Otherwise stick a test light or multimeter on the pins and switch things on. Have fun! Edited by user Saturday, December 10, 2022 12:17:04 PM(UTC)

Have fun! Thank you, my question was about removing the plug from the engine bay side

Doesn't it have a central nut and bolt to hold it in place? That is have you undone this nut? Edited by user Saturday, December 10, 2022 4:28:25 PM(UTC)

From the engine bay side there should be 2 plugs into that connector and the nut and bolt should hold the edge of each plug. One plug above, one below. Edited by user Sunday, December 11, 2022 5:30:59 AM(UTC)
