<DIV>...sure it's purple with green (as opposed to green with purple?) the
British Standard doesn't list a function for the former. The latter is for stop
lamps</DIV>

removing the CAB and carbs for rebuilding I noticed an unconnected wire and an
open terminal on the electrical lighting/flasher box. The wire is purple/green
and the terminal is the topmost one on the rear side of the box--there is no no
wire going to this terminal. The wire comes out of a small sub-harness along
with a yellow/brown and green/yellow wire, both of which are connected to
terminals on the rear side of the box.</SPAN><BR

only significant change from stock wiring is that I have electrified the rear
reflector pods and use them for turn flashers instead of having the one light
handling side/brake/turn functions, but I cannot see that this correlates with
having an open, disconnected wire at the control box end. </SPAN><BR

screw to the open terminal was loose, leading me to believe that the wire in
question was connected to it, but since all of my flashers, side and brake
lights are functional I thought I should try to find out the wire's function
before reconnecting it.</SPAN><BR></DIV>
