Sorry if I'm a little OT

I have just purchased a second-hand vdo dayton MS5000 sat nav to go in my
discovery. I have a user guide but no information on the wiring loom colour
codes on the nav computer. No idea which cables go to 12v let alone speedo
pulse.

Does anyone know or have the looms colour guide. I have installed Sat Nav
before so know what I'm doing if I know what each colour does.

TIA
Spencer

Have found the info eventually.... Is it me or is google getting ****e with
portal sites rather than real info.

For reference the link is http://www.installer.com/nav/carin.gif

Has a wiring diagram after a fashion, but no colour codes. It does
seem to refer to pin numbers though?

no, google is a bit polluted. If I wanted other search engines, I could use
the sods.

maybe we should write to google and suggest they do something about it?
