According to his records of past original wiring harnesses from BN2
cars they use as example, it is a single braided wire with a woven
covering of white with purple tracers encased in a vinyl
sheath. On one end is a forked terminal to connect to the
relay. I was told this wire is 48 inches long. Then a
length of brown with purple wire is between the switch and the
solenoid with a sleeve connector in the middle. Supposedly to
service the solenoid. So, problem solved. Just have to
order the wire and components now.</div>

<div dir=3D"ltr">In the middle of my BN2 re-wire and I have come
across a bit of a kink. If you check the Moss catalog they
list an overdrive harness for the BN1 and the BN4 through
BJ8. No listing for the BN2. The wiring harness I am
installing is a Moss cloth/PVC harness. There connection I am
concerned about today is the connection from the overdrive relay
connection C2 to the transmission switch. The original wiring
diagram for the BN2 in the service manual shows a single white wire
with green stripe from C2 on the relay to the transmission
switch. The harness I have has the connection from C2 to the
throttle switch (same color wire) within the main harness.
Really this connection is only inches apart, but there is no white
wire with a green stripe other than that coming out of the harness
at this point. This leads me to believe this is just a single
wire that runs from the overdrive relay to the transmission
switch. Has anyone that has wired a BN2 run into this?
I would like to know what gauge wire to use because I do not
know the amperage this wire has to carry. How long of a wire
would this be approximately? I would like to order it from
British Wiring with a woven sheath (black with white dots) to make
it look somewhat period. No having the transmission installed
yet makes figuring the length a little difficult. I'd rather be too
long with this wire than the alternative.</div>
