astra gte digital dash

[jakey c]

i went to put my astra gte digi dash in the corsa at the weekend but i seem to be missing two wire on the corsa, when comparing it to the wiring diagram, i seem to be missing the white with black tracer (but iv got a black with white) and the brown with yellow

does anyone have a pin out so i can find where the wires should be so i can then join it to the astras wires?
i took a couple pics if that helps




iv wrote out a pinout of what i have in my dash plug staring at the top left wire to the top right then the bottom row left to right


1: brown with blue tracer x2
2: green
3: brown x2
4: white
5: blue with black tracer
6: black with white tracer
7: black
8: grey with black tracer

9: blue with black tracer
10: blue with white tracer
11: brown with red tracer and brown with white tracer
12: black with a white spot (see pic below)
13: blue with green tracer
14: blue with white spot
15: blue with red tracer

anyone know if they are wrong?
as you can see no brown with yellow or white with black

right mate wot diagram/guide are you using.........?

i have a pic of the astra plug some where i'll try and find but heres a diagram. its for a nova but there 99% the same



hope this helps mate. drop me a pm if needs be.

you'll also find that the one you say is the grey with black tracer is actually you white with black tracer. i had a similar problem and got confused to.

also you say your missing the brown with yellow tracer (and yellow sheath?) dont worry about that one some corsa have it and some dont, its the same with the astra 's some do, some dont. mine did and jacks (corsaboi) didnt


hope this helps you mate and good luck with it. half of mine and jacks didt work so we gave up with it

[jakey c]

nice one cheers, ill have to give it ago lol, why what was wronge with them?

[matty101]

we cudnt get half the stuff to work, like the fuel gauge and they arent very accurate.

goodluck though

[bluecorsab]

if anyone knows digi dashes you and jack are the boys now i have the bloody thing.i must be mad

[matty101]

if we were the boys we wud have them fitted and working

+ jack cudnt have done it with out me

u got urs now? or my old one rather

[bluecorsab]

yh i got your old one now, and its missing bits jack hasnt given me a gearbox transducer and has forgot to put one of the bulbs in like he said he would.....so i cant do naff all yet like i wanted to

[matty101]

giv jack a ring, wot trannys in yours if its the newer electronic one leave it in it works perfectly.

jacks ( the badger) rang me before and the jammey badger has just got all hos workin, so i really wana try it agin now, but i'm gona wait a few years until i fit the old redtop

[bluecorsab]

mine has an f16 box with a cable so without the transponder im screwed

[MattyB]

so does that mean i need or don't need a transponder with my corsa. v reg electric driven?

[matty101]

if your corsa has the newer electronic transducer dont change it for the older anologue type.

the electronic ones work perfectly

[MattyB]

where do i locate the transducer then?

[matty101]

simple mate, its on ur gear box, next to the gear linkage. best to put it in reverse to acess it. its only held in by 1 10mm bolt



tops the old anoluge one but its missing the gear the goes in the bottom and spins to register the speed............

and the bottom one is the new electric ones that work properly

hope this helps dude

[MattyB]

Yep cheers, so if i find i've got the bottom one does that mean i just forget about the transducer i've got with my dials? and am i right in thinking the wires for it would be in my loom for my speedo?

When you say the bottom one works properly how do you mean?

[matty101]

yeah if you've got the bottom one its perfect just forget about it.

when i say it works properly it reads the correct speed, and doesnt require any additional wiring etc.

thee older ones are a bit of a pain, you hav to get the tranny and the dash from the same car or its inaccurate. this is because there were several different model digi dash's and each kind had a different tranny to go with. and its very hard to tell the tranys apart by lookin at them.

or atleast thats wot im told lol
