Radio wiring - apology

Friends, my great apologies for the mess my diagram looked when
it was posted earlier today - well, at least on my version of the
digest. So I will explain the terminals in words not a diagram.
Looking at the back of the radio for the ancillary wiring plug, there
are two rows of locations three in each row, and each row exactly
in-line in the perpendicular.
The top row from left to right.
Top left - blank terminal location (no contact)
Top centre - electric aerial feed (contact unused)
Top right - +ve feed (thick red cable)
Bottom row from left to right
Bottom left - Memory feed [?] ( thick red/yellow banded cable)
Bottom centre - Panel illumination (thin brown cable)
Bottom right - -ve feed (thick brown cable)
I hope that is now more clear.
Roman, thanks for your help and web references. As far as I can
remember I never had a dimmer facility on the panel illumination when
I had it in the previous car - that is what you mean I think. But
when I am near a good landline with net connection on Thursday I will
go through those diagrams and see if there is a clue. (No panel
dimmer facility on the military spec 80 to link it to anyway! But
it will help to at least eliminate that possibility and reduce my confusion).

Jon,
This is a bit of a long shot. Pop into Halfords, or the like, have a look at the radio adaptor plugs. On the back of the packets you will find a key showing wiring colours and functions.
I did this when I fitted a new radio cd player into my 80. I had to tidy up the rats nest of wiring that previous owners had left.
I have kept the card for mine but it was for Pioneer - Toyota. If you want the colour / function for this I can let you know tomorrow.
Regards Gareth Jones.
