GPO Telephone No. 314F. Wiring request. - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Hi people. I got to the stage where the phone would be able to ring and I could hear the dial tone but it would not recognize lifting of the handset. So I started again but a schematic that I drew was thrown away.

Anyone have any links on where to start from scratch? I have all the appropriate straps, resistors etc.

I've got a blank canvas now,
Help is really appreciated, I just want to use this phone now.

Thanks.

Bob Freshwater's site is a good place to start for all (especially GPO) telephone matters, here is the page for the 314, including a link to the circuit diagram and instructions for wiring for UK plug and socket operation.
