86-88 Spider wiring diagram

A color version of the 86-88 Spider diagram is currently in the works. However, the original diagrams are not clear in some areas so I'm asking for your help.

1) how many interior lights are there and their location(s)?
2) how are the lights turned on and off?
3) is there a light on the optional hardtop? if so, how does it operate?
4) what color is the small wire coming off the back of the alternator? (green?)
5) does this small wire go to the junction block on the left inner fender?

That's all the questions for now. Thanks for any input you can provide. :)

Hi Eric, Would you be able to share a S3 diagram with me? Been trying to diagnose a non functional tach and realized I have no clue what anything in the fusebox is. I have an 86 quad with bullet fuses, I believe in Jim's code it would be "11541 Spider 1986 R20 "
Thanks,
Simon
(P.S. I just joined, don't know if there's a way for me to send DMs at this point)

You can't. They are free - to Alfa owners. Our dear departed BB member Papajam (Jim Neill) made these as a labor of love. He gave them freely to Alfa owners asking only that they not be sold, used for profit or posted publicly (they are copyrighted).

I can send you a copy but it will be for a USA version (Bosch EFI). Does that cover your Spider?

diagrams can be sent private conversations....
personally I'd erase your email in your posting, or you'll end up with all sorts of junk from the bots

and yes, hard to believe it's been 5 years since Jim passed.:cry:
