After years of neglect, I am in the process of FINALLY giving the holk (albeit on club plates for the past few years) a decent interior.
Along the years I have changed a few times dashes and instrumentation and I cannot locate anymore the wire for the dash lighting. Would any one know the colour? I have tried with the multimeter, but with the dash back  and toooooooo many custom connections some wires are too hard to reach to test.

You're looking for the wire that powers the lights in the instrument cluster?

Hi Brayden,
Thank you. I checked the wiring diagram but I read it as R/Y was for the interior light (behind mirror).
Thanks again

That's a bit further to the left on the diagram. 'Illumination light' is the little bulb behind the fan controls that comes on with the cluster lights.
