Re: Xantia A/C
I think that you can see the wire numbers just peeking out of the sleeve.

Re: Xantia A/C
Not with my eyesight.
I know what the wire numbers are anyway but then again I am fairly sure that the colours do not match the official manual which is more than irritating. What's the point of them if they contain inaccurate information?

Re: Xantia A/C
Colours are irrelevant on Xantia wiring, only the wire numbers matter.

Re: Xantia A/C
That's what a mate said about French cars in general.
I didn't believe him. Why do Citroen put colours in their manuals if not relevant, do you know?
Most of the time they are right but sometimes they are way off.
