Relay identification

Postby Portafold » Fri Jun 23, 2017 1:55 pm

Hello, I've got a 1990 AutoSleeper (Legend GL) based on a pre-smilie Mk3 Transit, but I can't identify what a lot of the under-bonnet wiring and relays are for.

I have a couple of questions so I'll separate them.

What is this relay for? I initially thought it was an AutoSleeper addition, but it's a Ford branded one so I'm not sure now.

It's on the near side, metal clipped to the bodywork up above the leisure battery. There are four solid yellow cables, two solid brown cables and a yellow with orange tracer. It's a 77180 relay 40 Amp, 78EG, 11406, CA, V23134, K6, X40.

That does look like Ford wiring, but I can't think what it might be for

It turns out that it's for the solenoid on the automatic gearbox. The overdrive part, so it has the fourth gear.
