Good afternoon.
I am working on a 1970 Norton Commando and I ordered a Lucas Wiring Loom Cloth Bound "ww068066" and they sent it to me, but then theey sent along with the wiring, the schematics for the "ww19106" and the colour scheme just doesn't match with the one they sent me... Has this already happen to anyone of you?
Does someone have the schematics for the "ww068066" that I got? I can't find it anywhere.... I can only findd the schematics they sent me for the "ww19106".... but the colours don't match....
Thank you for your help.

Thank you for your help.

I can't find any record of WW068066 on the manufacturer's website - where did you get it from?
WW19106 is listed as a 1970-74 Commando headlamp harness (the cloth one is WW19106C). Does this fit with what you were after?

Welcome aboard, BTW :wink:
 
Welcome, Raul,

Who did you order the harness from, as 068066 would seem to be a Norton part number although that actual part number doesn't appear on the Andover Norton parts list?

In the link below, 068066 is original Lucas number 54960724 which is the '71 - '74 headlamp harness (AN part 068067/BR = braided)

According to the Lucas list (link, below) the 54960724 harness is now Wassell-Lucas part WW19106C (C = 'Cloth' braid?), so ww068066 is WW19106. If the wiring diagram doesn't match the harness I can only guess they may have sent you the wrong harness.

Why did you order what appears to be a '71 - '74 headlamp harness? As a '70 model would normally have a different wiring layout and harness to that used from '71-on?

Presumably this is what you already have...

Hello Andy,
I bought it from Norville. I had a typing error, as it is not a 1970 but a 1974 Commando. The diagram you posted is the one they sent along with the part, I just have to try it out bit by bit to see if I can find out the right way to assemble it...
Thank you for your help

Hello LAB, I ordered it because I have a 74 Commando... I wrote 70 by mistake.
However, if it is the same part, then probably your right an Norville sent me the wrong part... Well, as I told Andy, I'm going to try and figure it out... trial and error... trial and error...
Thank you all for your help!

The wiring colours on the WW19106 diagram are correct for '71 - '74, and, according to Norvil "068066 - HARNESS - HEADLAMP - PRE MK3 - 1971 TO 1974" so if the harness colours do not match the diagram then Norvil must have sent the wrong one as there's no other Commando harness section which is remotely similar, the other Commandos to have a separate headlamp harness section were the 850 Mk3 and '74 JPN replica which are completely different.
