Warning light cluster

[Malsprint]

In the process of refurbishing the dash of a Sprint I mixed up all of the coloured segments in the warning light cluster. I thought it would be obvious which went where. But it isnt. Does anybody have the list of which colour goes with each warning: oil, indicator choke etc.

Thanks

On mine they are as follows:



So from top right clockwise:
Ign - red
Fuel - red
right indicate - green
H brake - amber
choke - amber
left indicate - green
oil - green
Beam - blue.

To further complicate this. Mine has a different layout.
Going clockwise from the top.
Indicator
Beam
IGN
Fuel
Brake
Choke
Rear demist
Oil

Ahhh, one of those,
I think you should have:
Indicator - Green? Amber?
Beam - Blue
IGN - Red
Fuel - Red
Brake - Red
Choke - Amber
Rear demist - Blue? Red?
Oil - Green

But not 100% sure.

The later cars have 'demist' in the cluster and just the one segment for indicators.

Demist is a sort of Magenta colour.

The green oil light was throwing me. The oil light coming on would seem like a red situation to me.
With the green segment in the oil location all of the others now fit into place.

Yeah, seems odd doesn't it - but pretty much every "British" motor I've had has always been:
Blue : Main Beam
Green: Oil Pressure
Red: Ignition

In one form or another - the most common being coloured indicator lamps in the speedo face.

Odd isn't it. You'd expect green for 'normal' conditions, so perhaps that makes more sense for the battery/ignition on a BL car

Later style...

On my 1974 Triumph Toledo 1300 "HL Special", this later style of warning-light cluster (with substituted FWD Triumph 1300 centre-trim button) is mounted up-side-down, to use the single double-arrowed, direction-indicator tell-tale light, for trailer direction-indicators, whilst the segments through which the horizontal-axis of symmetry passes, is used for the car's left & right hand direction-indicators.

I have a different colour scheme which also includes home-made apple-green segments and I hope to make some in turquoise and other colour shades in the future. The apple-green and yellow segments are probably the most visible, whilst magenta for thr heated rear-window is probably the most difficult to see, unless one has a high-intensity bulb.
