1921 EJ Roadster Wiring Loom Information


Recommended Posts

 

Well now that travel restrictions are being relaxed in Alberta it’s time to start doing some restoration work on the EJ. I could use help with the original routing, sizing and materials of the wiring loom (ie Armor steel or asphaltic cotton?) for the instrument board area and routing to headlights, taillight, generator, coil, etcetera. If anybody has some pictures or info they are willing to share it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Here are a few photos of mine. I used a couple of original wire harnesses to determine correct gauge and even color (as best could be determined). I drive my car so added a period correct aftermarket turn signal system therefore I have some extra wires under dash. If you want some detailed info on wire gauge and armor vs no armor, send me a PM with your email and I’ll send you the Excel file with the details. There was no asphalt wire loom on the Light Six, only cloth wire, armor wire and the steel wrapped loom.

 

What is shown is wire under dash, steel loom under dash and steel loom in engine compartment.

This is the armored headlight wiring. Along engine right side to where the right headlight splits off and is taped at the splice in the same style cloth tape. It also shows the right headlight wire under the right fender and then to the headlight. The armored wire was originally inside of a rubber tube between the fender and headlamp as shown.C82960B4-B97A-46BB-9EF7-ADE72490FE9E.jpeg.17d3229ddcded441d52b07e18cf7ab5c.jpegAC70ECF4-0CBF-4A1A-8EB6-C70C3336C8FE.jpeg.76f914a6676923b8cf0bf9e323af3e47.jpegC5279FE5-2F23-4812-9FB9-06714CE20925.jpeg.1bfa51c82c3a8839b0f88392d40cec59.jpeg

There might be.  It would most likely be in a bin that has other gauges.
