Hi guys, does anyone out their have a complete set of wiring diagrams for a 1991 model 164, 3 litre ,v6,12v (luxury model). I have the 164 shorey car disc but it dosen't give a complete overall wiring diagram of where everything is on the car . I basically need a wiring diagram that links everything together.

Hopefully someone can help since I am getting desperate .

There really isn't such a wiring diagram such as you describe for the 91 -93 model. There where laminated wall charts for dealers that showed general layout of car and components of electrical system, etc.

Now the 94 wiring manual has grids in back of book that give layout of car but of course the systems are not exactly the same.

First picture 94-95 24v wiring grid but this grid is not in 12v wiring book so wall charts are where this info whould be available.

Second picture shows where cooling fan components are located but that is how 12v book is shown each system seperately after each system wiring diagram.

I might be wrong, but my recollection is that you can't get just vehicle speed driven ambient air through the system without the system acting in automatic (with fan and temp controls active), with a/c or without a/c. The econ setting just turns off the a/c but leaves the auto controls doing their thing. The auto setting (with light on) turns on the a/c above certain temperatures.

You could set the econ button, and turn the temp setting low. This will try to set the internal temperature of the car with just ambient air, but the fan will still seek a speed setting depending on the temperature you manually set. Play with the temp until the fan runs at it's lowest speed. The only other option is to hit the off button, which seems to cut off all incoming air and shuts the system down completely, and open a window, lol.

I had wondered about the same thing, and playing with the temp setting while on econ is how I do it. I rarely ever use the a/c anyway, except to defog windows in the rain.
