Problem with the electronics of my Centurion (I need urgent help)

Post by Helderluiss »

Hi guys

I have reached a point in the recovery of my Centurion where I cannot move forward. I connot figure out were the electronics that connect to the tower components fit and I do not have the instructions for this. also the cables were damaged when I bought it. I managed to figure out where the barrel elevation motor connects but I am completely lost to the rest. Can someone please help me? I´m attaching a diagram and photos of the mess I have ahead.
Thanks you very much.

The Blue/Brown pair go to the elevation motor as you have it.

The White/Yellow pair are a relic from the 12 gauge blank firer and aren't used in the Centurion.

The Green/Purple and Black/Red pairs go to the limit switches. I'll see if I can find a wiring loom with them attached but don't have anything to hand at present.

Finally found one with the right colours :D .

At some point they started using a multicore with all black cabling :roll:

This is a from a Panzer III, so the lower switch is next to the mounting flange.

The upper switch has the red wire connected to the common terminal and the purple wire on the Normally Closed (NC) terminal.
The lower switch has the black wire on the common terminal and the green wire on the NC terminal.
