<div>Thanks for everyone's good ideas and starting points. The DB10 relay box has the cover on correctly and those wires are correctly attached. The flashing stops when I disconnect the green wire to the double connection where it meets the green to the stator tube and sends a green back to the flasher. I will follow some more trials tomorrow to see if I can distinguish if problem can be isolated to the flasher or stator wiring. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>The sneak current to the dome light made me wonder about my grounds too, I will re-check that wiring under the dash too. I was frustrated enough to work only on bumpers and over riders most of today. </div>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Hi Rodger, I have the wiring harness business in
Australia and a couple of Magnettes so I may be able to assist your trouble
shooting.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">I assume your car is fitted with the Lucas DB10
relay box and your rear signal lights operate as stop lights and turn
signals.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">The first thing I would do is disconnect the wires
to the stator tube. The wires may have become twisted and shorted. If the
condition persists then you know it is not caused by the stator tube wire or the
flasher switch. If the condition goes away, remove and chek the stator tube
wiring and switch connections.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">I would also check the connections to the roof
harness behind the dash. Make sure the wires are connected colour for colour -
white purple and white brown for the two rear signal lamps and brown green
for the interior light. Again, you can disconnect these and see if the problem
persists by checking the front flashers.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">And the other thing to check is the DB10 relay box.
</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">On terminal one you should have a green with brown
wire which comes from "L" on the flasher can.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Terminal 2 should be a green with white wire for
your front right flasher</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Terminal 3 should be a white with brown wire for
the right rear signal lamp (brake and flasher combined)</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Terminal 4 should be a green with yellow
wire from your stator tube to turn on the right turn flashers</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Terminal 5 should be a green with purple wire and
is the input from the stop lights switch</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Terminal 6 should be a green with red
wire and is for the front left flasher</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Terminal 7 should be a white with purple wire and
is for the leaft rear signal lamp</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Terminal 8 should be a green with blue wire and is
from your stator tube to turn on the left turn flashers.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">These are the standard Lucas colour codes. If all
this is wired correctly, and your problem still persists, I would disconnect the
wires on terminals four and 8 and see if the condition goes away. If it doeasn.
I would suggest the DB10 box is faulty.</font></div>

<font color="black" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="3">
<div><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent;">I have been frustrated with a glitch with
my re-wiring job. This is a 59 ZB with a new British Wiring harness.
Regulator is the original, as are horn and signal light relays. New flasher
unit form Moss. Re-wired stator tube. Most electrical functions seem
correct, e.g. the heater fan motor, the ignition, headlights. However,
when I turn on the key all four signal lights flash, along with the dome
light. I have checked connections to dash panel and relays and can't find a
problem. I have had trouble confirming green wire continuity from fuse box to
all connections. Finally, I have four green wires at the fuse box, not
the three illustrated on the ZA diagram I have in my WSM. </font></div>
<div> </div>
<div>I need advice on how to troubleshoot this problem, everything I check
seems ok or doesn't make any sense. Rodger </div>

No, I haven't fallen off the face of the earth. Family
and Employer <br>
have conspired to keep me from spending as much time on the
wiring <br>
diagram as I had hoped. Also, building a set of icons to
use for the <br>
various components has taken more time than I thought.
The news is that <br>
I've completed building a single wiring diagram that
has all of the <br>
options for the ZA, ZB, ZB Varitone both RHD and
LHD. It is being <br>
checked for accuracy and completeness so it
should be ready to send out <br>
soon.<br>
