bc the original S wore was wired through my module that links my ecu to my backup/nss. that’s where my vehicle reads that i’m in reverse (or any gear) as opposed to a switch on the shifter or trans.
Update for those who care. I ended up testing the signal wire to the starter and found that it, more often than not and then ultimately never, didn’t proivde the 12V when the key was in start. There was, however, a 2nd wire that paralleled the starter signal wire that did provide 12v at crank. I...
Ah! 16” electric fan that was recommended to me by Cesar at Cruiser Tech. I have zero cooling issues if the AC isn’t running. Can be 100 degrees and humid and I’ll run bw 200 and 210. Once AC is turned on it climbs immediately and I can’t keep it under 220 even if it’s 80 out
My original wiring was a mess. I ended up using a wire under the dash in the hvac set that has power only when ac is on to run to the compressor so the the clutch engaged when AC was turned on. The fan is wired to come on automatically when AC is on too. Aside from the ecu not controlling the...
I think I inadvertently disconnected the original starting wire at the connector between the ignition switch pigtail while pulling the downstream part of the connector to get some room to work. The “no start” started after I had been messing in there and got worse to the point it was nearly...
It is a swap on a 62, yes. The wires I took the earlier pic of are not part of the PSI harness but I do have a fuse box that was added that’s adjacent to the relays and the E38 under the glove box.
thanks! at the ignition switch itself i have 2 wires steady 12v and 2 that are 12v when in “start”. this is 1 of the 2 obviously i just dont know where it goes. nonetheless i have a good wire for the starter solenoid which is what i was looking for. just wish i knew what was what but im not a...
Haha. .no, that’s just a set up to test the wire i was using so I could, by myself, turn the key to “start” and have a multimeter on the wire. The yellow wire i have tapped into was just a jumper wire to test the wires in that bundle.
OK, after playing with this for hours it appears that my S wire is either bad or has disconnected somewhere between the ignition switch and starter.
That said, when probing around I found a 2nd wire in the engine bay, right next to the S wire, that also only provides 12V when the key is in the...
I increased the gauge on my battery to engine ground to a 2gauge and I’m planning on swapping out the heavy positive main from the battery to the starter as well. We’ll see then i guess. . .so frusrating.
I was completely wrong.
I tested the wire at the relay and it worked properly (12V only when key was in “on” or cranking). I was super confused so i reached out to PSI as well as the group who did my remote start/locks to see which wire was for what. Turns out all of the ‘foreign’ wires that...
