I got on with the wiring this weekend, as there’s plenty of it on a car with a computer controlled engine. I wanted to finish off all the wiring that I could for inside the car before I moved on to the engine loom. I had decided to fit a delay relay to the courtesy lights, which meant that I had to re-wire the circuit as it used the earth as a switch as well as a supply. With that all done and tested I moved on to the indicator circuits. There was so little draw from the LED’s I needed to fit resistors to get the flashers working. They are quite chunky as they have big heatsinks so I fitted them in the gap next to the air vents where they could be screwed to the body to help keep them cool. It was then on to some additional wiring. I ran switch wires for the fuel pump and the amplifier power up relays in the boots. The battery is going in the boot so it will be supplied from there too. I fitted a 30A breaker to cover both circuits and left it all loose for now until the battery is in place. Next was a relay to do the neutral start switch and supply a signal to the PCM to indicate if the car is in gear or not and control the idle. It also has a two way brake switch that supplies power to the torque converter clutch which I fitted. With all that done, I sat back and realised I’d done all of the wiring I needed for now and could move on to the PCM loom. I planned to use the hole from the wipers to feed the wiring through, which I’d checked was wide enough for the wiring. It wasn’t big enough to get any of the plugs through, so it was either make a bigger hole or cut all those wires. I grouped the wires by colour so that I could solder them back together easily and cut it all. Gulp. Plenty of soldering for me to do over the next few weeks!
