Brown Wire Mod?

How is this performed on a 128 Sedan? I've only found it explained for an X1/9. There must be differences in location of components etc....

Hi Lowtech,

What is the 'brown wire trick'...haven't heard about this before.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Use the search feature and you will find numerous threads about it.

On the X the main power wire from the battery to the fuse box is a 10g brown wire. The "mod" is to add a second 10g wire from the battery to the connector on the fuse box.

IIRC there were several variations on the connectors on the fuse box, so look through the threads for your style.

Thank you Tim for the info.
