Beta A Engine panel query

[bluerm166]

I've just refitted the wired connections having completed a new fascia after the plastic original crazed and fell to pieces.
I labelled all the wires or groups when disconnecting and together with the Beta Wiring diagrams got everything happily back in place.
Except I find I have the negative return from the Faria hours gauge ( not a beta item) with no proper place to attach it,ie no vacant female spade.It terminates in a male spade which has been bent as shown.
Presumably this was hooked in to one of the spades for the lamps or possibly the stop button .
This was added at the same time as the original install and has been running happily for years ,when the engine/alternator is on.
Would be grateful for advice as to which point I can connect this to to complete the circuit.I can change the terminal fitting if that's necessary but I am not a 'solderer' .

That is a piggy back connector to enable 2 faston connectors to go onto one tab.
Just find a suitable earth connection and put it on first and the one you had to remove goes onto the extra tab.

Yes thanks,I see that, but which terminal ?
Phew,I did record it !

The only negative connection in the "A" panel seems to be the black wire on the green "power on", light. but in the photo of your panel that appears to have another black already piggy backed on to it Something extra has already been added ??


Edit. That's the wire in question surely ? ... the one with the red sleeve on the crimp .......... and the original wire is the one piggy backed on to it

Yes,as standard the green light has a white 1mm looped onto one spade and a 1mm black onto the other.The hours gauge was added to the system with a positive taken from the AC terminal on the keyswitch and the negative black (for some reason with a red crimp) doubled onto the black spade at the green indicator.Made easier to trace because these two additional wires come from the only flat twin involved which can just be seen entering the cabin mounted gauge .Actually I spent more time fixing the lamps properly than almost anything else since I wasn't able to find any toothed starlock washers to supplement the ones I saved,and made do with locking washers of the axle type plus resilient bedding.

Thanks for the response .
