A scratch built loom will be custom made to your own spec. Working on mine at the min. Treat every circuit as a seperate project.

Loads of info on here. This is the standard Sierra switch gear running the indicators and the hazards.

I stripped the sierra loom and filled two carrier bags full of usable wire and another two full of rubish.

the best is to make a list

and split up the car in 3 sections

Front

Midle

Back

to the Front you will need to put a tube with wire

to the back to

sow firstly just create a list with how many wires you need to trow to the front
and how many to the rear.


if thats sorted you already have 60% of the loom done

Tks

Just make sure you run extra earth wires as this is probabily the biggest failing with a kitcar.
