Hi guys, I have been searching the forum looking for the wiring that I am going to need to join up to start the ecotec, as I really have no idea what I am doing now and have become a bit lost and progress has ground to a halt as I can't work out what is going on looking at those wiring diagrams, it just makes my head hurt.
I have fitted the VX Ecotec and 4 speed Auto from the VX Commodore into my Tf Rodeo, which was originally a 3.2 v6 isuzu engine on 2wd 5 speed manual.
I have taken the wiring loom and ECU and sent the ECU off to get the VATS removed.
So I now have the wiring and ECU connected to the engine and I am left with the three plugs that come from the ECU and want to know which wires I am going to need to connect to run the engine.
I am guessing the fuel pump that is already in the rodeo will run the ecotec as it was already a quad cam 3.2 v6 before I converted it.
From this point I have no idea what I am doing, so I am hoping I just need to connect a few wires and the fuel pump etc, all of which I am hoping to find in the existing rodeo wiring and simply splice the Commodore to the Rodeo wiring where needed.
Now this is the bit I am stuck on, I am not really that good at working out the wiring diagram, but can solder, join or whatever is needed to the wiring once I know where and what I need to connect.
I guess I am looking for a list of the only wires I am going to need to connect the come from the three plugs I have hanging off the VX wiring loom as they connect to the dash I guess, I think it would be plugs YE110, YE111 & YE112 as I think that is the three plugs I am left with.
Any help at this point would be awesome, it was a fairly big job converting the engine etc over and I thought I had beaten it and was on the home straight, until I sat here looking at these three plugs and scratching my head, think I might have bitten off more than I can chew at this point, didn't even think about the wiring till I was halfway through...Doh!
I have seen a lot of the standalone wiring looms you can purchase for engine conversions like this, however as I have the VX loom and the Rodeo was already a Quad Cam 3.2 v6 with ECU etc, surely I have all I need is to simply connect a few of the wires from these three plugs and away we go.....or not at the moment
