Hi Guys,

I have a total of 12 different SEE repair/tech manuals.....however none of what I found includes a complete SEE wiring diagram. I have some basic sections in the trouble shooting sections, but nowhere can I find the complete diagram as is found in the other Unimog manuals. Has anyone come across this? If so, the TM number would be most appreciated.

Cheers,

Scott

I have all the manuals too and next time I'm in the shop I'll look. But it is possible there is no schematic. Didn't they make all the wires black so that "the other side" couldn't figure things out if they ended up with them? If that is true I always thought that was kind of silly.

I dunno about that. I used to install remote starters and stereo's for a living. I remember the first freightliner highway tractor that came in for a CD player, I removed the blank plate, to find ALL the wiring behind the dash was white. All of it. I had to meter every one, and all the same gauge, even the speaker wires were the same generic white wiring....maybe its just an older freightliner thing. Wasn't just that truck either, I did quite a few and all were the same.

Milspec wiring has a bad habit of all being white becasue of the teflon; being teflon the harness slip and slide very well so limited chaffing and it is self extinguishing should you manage to make it ignite. They make up for it by individually labeling each wire in a harness and each harness as a unit. The operating theory is it is cheaper and faster to swap out a harness then to spend time tracing wires.
