through the wire to the handbrake warning light and connect it to the<br />

grey/black wire in the <strong>GTM</strong> harness. The five wires can be connected using<br />

the white connector provided in the kit. The remaining wires in the K Series<br />

wiring harness should be capped off using the heat shrink insulating material<br />

provided. This material is best shrunk into position using a hot air blower.<br />

Attach the black earth ring connector on the <strong>GTM</strong> wiring harness to the black<br />

earth ring connector on the K Series Rover wiring harness and insulate with<br />

insulating tape.<br />

All the other wires and connectors on the K Series wiring harness are not<br />

used and therefore should be tie wrapped back onto the harness in a neat<br />

manner to prevent them shorting or rattling under the dashboard.<br />

Working within the radiator ducting on the passenger side, connect up the<br />

black heater blower unit connector from the K Series Rover Metro wiring<br />

harness. Connect the large black connector just in front of the heater blower<br />

unit to the mating connector on the <strong>Libra</strong> wiring harness. Further down the K<br />

Series harness towards the front drivers side of the car is the main heavy duty<br />

fuse block assembly. This assembly will already be attached to the K Series<br />

harness. In the standard car the main power feed to the engine management<br />

cable harness goes directly into the main fuse box at this point. If you<br />

received your car parts from a salvage company it is more than likely that they<br />

will have removed the engine wiring loom from the main fuse box by cutting<br />

the brown wire at this point. If it has not been cut then cut it to separate the<br />

engine management harness from the main K Series wiring harness and join<br />

in to the brown lead coming from the new <strong>Libra</strong> wiring loom using the<br />

connector provided within the kit.<br />

Connect through the connector on the new <strong>Libra</strong> wiring loom to the connector<br />

protruding through the radiator ducting that supplies the headlight harness. At<br />

this point you will see that there is a main black earthing block on the K Series<br />

harness and a 6mm earthing ring on the <strong>Libra</strong> loom. Loosely connect these<br />

two wires together plus a black wire provided in the kit and connect back to<br />

the battery earthing terminal.<br />

Connect the orange/green and green connector on the <strong>Libra</strong> harness to the<br />

thermostat on the passenger side of the radiator.<br />

Connect the purple/black and black wires coming out of the <strong>Libra</strong> harness to<br />

the horn. Connect the black and green/red leads from the <strong>Libra</strong> harness to<br />

the black and green/red leads coming from the K Series harness.<br />

Now moving to the top centre of the radiator connect through the black<br />

connector with the three wires going into it from the <strong>GTM</strong> harness to the<br />

mating connector on the K Series harness. At the same point connect<br />

through the two white wires to the two white wires in the <strong>GTM</strong> harness and the<br />

two black and white wires to the two black and white wires in the <strong>GTM</strong><br />

harness. These wires are for the coil on the 1400cc engines and are not used<br />

on the 1600cc and 1800cc engines using the 5AS harness. It is however<br />
