308 Clock Wiring

I still have mine apart...where do you need to know about....at the clock itself or further down the harness?

 

I just happen to have my newly refurbed center console downstairs...

Sounds like someone need a readable wiring diagram

my 308 clock light does not turn off, is this normal on the 308.

thanks

 

Not normal. All 308s have the same wiring at the clock and oil temp gauges including wire colors. The yellow wire supplying voltage to the clock light AND oil temp light go back into the dash gauge panel to the dimmer which feeds all gauge illumination lights.

There is also yellow/green wire at the clock with constant battery voltage to keep the clock wound. It is possible that the yellow and yellow/green wires are reversed at the clock connector. Is your oil temp illumination light always lit as well? Using Rick's photo, my schematic and a simple auto 12v voltage probe, you can quickly troubleshoot the situation around the connector. GL

 

Nope.

That will kill your battery, given enough time.

 

About 3-4 weeks and the batt is D E A D. And I mean D--E--A--D.

At least in my car.

 

Thanks for your help Paul, the temp gauge light is not on and the gauge does not work, I assume the two proplems are related. What is scary about this it was a licensed Ferrari mechanic who screwed this up. Sadly he passed away before i could bring the car back to him, by the way I had nothing to do with his passing.
