I'm reading from the '83 manual.

The terminal numbers are practically illegible, so, take the following with the understanding that it might not be perfect:

There are three wires that are connected to the "run" contact.

They are:

red/black stripe........connected to socket 15
red/green stripe........connected to socket 15R
red/yellow stripe.......connected to 15X

There are two supply wires:

Both are 4mm red wires and each goes to socket 30. There are two of them.


The start contacts go to the violet/white stripe. I cannot read the socket number.

The accessory contacts go to green/white stripe. Again, I cannot read the socket number.


Please check with a continuity tester to be sure the colored wires match the contacts for each function. The socket numbers may be iffy but the functions and wire colors should match.

The wiring and positions are the same for the 81-85 300SD models

The Violet/White goes to 50 (starter)
The Green/White goes to 30P
