I would like to thank mini me for the advice, absolutely brilliant. Once i found that i did have extra cables, it was easier to sort the others. It seems even the Lucas harness is not correct, the harness does not go where it should, but i have overcome that. Again a big thanks to Rex as well for the actual diagram that was very useful. Cheers Nick
thank you for the two replies, i will have a go at the first one as i can see most of the colours on the diagram. If not i would like to take up mini me's offer and send a picture of the harness. Thanks to both. cheers. Nick. Coventry.
Thanks for that,but as you say there are thousands to choose from and all the ones i have looked at do not resemble the harness colours i have. Nick. some of the diagrams are not even for the 3TA, one i looked at was for a BSA, Not a 3TA.
Hello, i am in need of some serious help to re wire my 1960 3TA. i bought the bike through auction 3 years ago. When i got it home i found the wiring was a complete mess, as it included household wires and all the rubbish expected. also only 3 wire were connected to anything and two of those were for the horn. i have bought 2 harnesses that perported to be for the 3ta, and i am now trying to get some information as to where all the cables go. i would be really grateful if anybody could supply pictures of any connections or a colour diagram of the wiring. yours in need. Nick Bye
