    First tip would be that you tell us what year and model XJ you have.

    On the stock speedo,

    High Beam = Yellow and Black
    Neutral = Brown and Light Blue
    Oil = Red/White and Black/Red
    Turn Signal = Dark Green and Dark Brown
    Back Light = Blue and Black

    Put this together with the installation instructions for the new one, and you should be able to wire it up.

    Where applicable, I've listed + first and - second. However, for the Turn Signal lamp, there is no polarity. If your new speedo uses polarized LEDs instead of lamps, it will not work for the Turn Signal without some modification.

    Your a life saver...I have been trying to get the lights to work for 4 days now. I can't even think anymore I have such a massive head ache. All I want now more than anything is to go for a rid safely.
