Hi!

I have recently got my slef a used 940. It seems like some previus owner swapt the tranny from a AW71L to a AW71.

The OD switch is not working on the car. I have resolderd the relay and now the arrow lights up. So I checked the wiring to the gearbox. To my surprise, the previous owner just cut them. The blue cabel to the OD relay is now connected to the ignition coil, with gives it 12 volt and itīs working. But the second brown cabel, with comes from further back on the tranny isīn connected. I canīt find the cabel from the car it self. I donīt know where they cut it.

Iīm now going to try to reconnect the tranny electical. In the AW71L the cabel from pos 87 on the relay energises the solenoid when the button is pressed. And in the AW 71 it cuts the current. I wonder if it enough to just change the relay, so it cuts the current when i press the button? Or should I just add an extra relay?
The second thing what is the second cabel (the brown one) going to and where should i connect the other end? The third problem is where should I look for the original wireing from the car it self to the tranny, it has been cut somewhere and i can find out where.

Thanks Thomas
