1989 Loyale 5 speed into 1986 Brat - 4WD, 4WD LO indicator wiring?

Featured Replies

Hi all, just completed putting a 1989 Loyale transmission into my 1986 Brat (behind an EJ22E out of a 1992 Legacy) and I'm having difficulty getting the wiring for the reverse switch and instrument cluster indicators for 4WD and 4WD LO correct. I figured the Loyale's transmission would be a simple contact for the reverse light and some kind of similar arrangement for the 4WD and 4WD LO but a simple continuity check doesn't make it seem like that's correct. The Brat was originally 4 wires, the Loyale is 6, but neither of my wiring diagrams reflect what's what. 

Anybody have any ideas or any pinouts for these they could send my way? 

Thanks!

 
Google is your friend in this instance. I’m 99% sure a mate of mine originally made this image ;) 

I think when it refers to 4wd wiring it means the low range as the 4wd light switch is on the back of the 4wd lever.

Cheers 

Bennie
