Im just about go go outside and fit my defi link control unit but i need to know where the wires connect to

I have 4 couloured wires,Black,Red,Orange and White problem is my instruction manual is completely japanese.Im guessing the black is earth and red is live,orange illumination? and white ignition live? can anyone shed any light on the best places to wire this to

many thanks

 

what model car is it ?
I have done a Jap facelift classic and a UK 00 classic both of which had near identical colours?
(off to the workshop to grab wiring diag)... wont be a mo

 

English instructions here

 

Its an MY98 STi

 

Link doesn't look to be very helpful, so I'll carry on

Red on defi is "12v permenant Positive" and goes to a white wire with a silver fleck in it.
Orange on Defi is "Ign ON 12v" and goes to a Dark green with a black tracer on it. (note there will be a light green wire in amongst there too!!)
Black on Defi is "Earth" and goes to a Yellow wire with a green tracer in it.
White on Defi is "Illumination" and goes to a Purple wire with a black fleck in it.

All these wire colours are derived from the back of the Hazzard warning switch, everything you need is there.

Hope that helps.

Further investigation reveals a link within the above site to be of more use.

Andy,there isnt a yellow wire with green trace or a purple with black fleck.Any ideas

 

The Earth could be taken from somewhere else if your stuck.

As for the missing Purple (Illumination) Just find the wire that goes 12v positive when the lights are turned on...

Cheers Andy,all sorted now,i took the earth from my knocklink and stole the illumination from my rear heated window switch.Many thanks for your help
