I used the same diagram from the 100 shop manual to wire my BN2 on a
bare chassis. My install would have been 100% correct if the harness had
not had a couple wires mis-coded. They were turn signal wires, and we
even went through the brake/signal relay box looking for the problem
(needless to say, I was rather pissed-off about it). I'll never sell the
car--my late father and I restored it together--but whoever ends up with
it might get misled by the wires' coloring; come to think of it I should
probably put a note or something on the wires.

I used the same diagram from the 100 shop manual to wire my BN2 on a

Yes it is possible to cross the wires and put the wrong bulb
in the wrong instrument but this would be against how the
harness is laid out. The attached wiring diagram shows which
wires go to which instrument. This wiring diagram is not a
reproduction but comes from a period work shop manual for
BN4 through BT7. The manual is Part N. AKD1179A Issue 2 if

Same for the BJ8 (mine, at least).<br>
<br>
There might be enough slack in the wiring harness to cross up the
two leads.<br>
