I accidently disconnected the positive brown wire for the boot light. It has a insulated female end. I only have a HT/G GTS wiring diagram which shows it goes to a connector used for all the rear lights. It also joins to the rear interior lights.

I cant find that connector though its possibly long gone. Im worried that the positive line to the boot light is an uninsulated male end flopping around in between panels.

Does anyone know where the connector is, if it exists and how the brown boot light positive wire is routed to the boot?

The wire lcation will depemd omn when your HK GTS was built.

Early cars did not have a boot light and many were fitted with the accessory boot light by the dealers. These were connected to the tail light wire and only worked when the parkers or headlights were on.

Later cars had the wire connected to the driver's side rear quarter light.

Yes, rear quarter light = interior light in the rear pillar.

The 2 wires at that light will be orange & white. The orange wire is the power wire.

I think you will find it easier to reconnect it at the tail-light wiring harness plug.

Thanks Terry and Warren.

Not sure if mines erarly or late. body has hk36030A stanmped into it. Plate has 80737-699-A.

The wire from the boot light seemed to go above the wheel arch next to the body. When I pulled on it , it came out with a factory style insulated female terminal. But it might have been done by anyone. There was also another dodgy joiner spliced in. Its been off the road for a long time and I cant remember if the boot light needed the parkers on. I might wire it that way, certainly easier and if that was the way factory ones were, why not.
