3/25/2018 Reorganizing the Wiring Harness #11 Complete
On Friday we went and picket up Stage 1 and Stage 2 of our kit - it was great to see Lonny and Adam and talk through some questions! Also saw several others there ready for pickup - they are rolling them out the door quick! Here is the frame after we got it home to the garage.
With the wiring harness, we are done with #12 with 1 more to go on the wiring. Thanks to Lonny, BaltimoreHokie and Brian above! When we got rid of all the extra ABS wires and connector, we end up with a slightly different arrangement of data wires. There is not a twisted pair from the ECM to the BCM - we will have to figure out which pins are needed on both and put that twisted pair in. There are 2 sets of twisted pairs from the Black/Purple multi-plug to the PCM plug on front of fuse box (both sets ~2.5' long) - probably need to remove them or use one as an extension.
In this last photo, there is the coil for the fuel pump in the upper left. The ground extensions for the fuel pump on the lower left. And the tail light wires on the lower right. We could not find the center brake light connector at that stage and thus there is not a light blue wire in that coil. We will have to find the right connector for the center brake light and run a light blue wire to this coil in the next step.
Corrected: Also, there is not a ground connected to the white fuse box plug. Lonny told me that it was very important to have one, so I need to put it in. The problem being that I cannot find a pinout of this white fuse box plug - anyone know where I can find the pinout? For that matter, I can't find the pinouts for any of these fuse box plugs. Any suggestions?
To do: (Update 3/27/18)
1. [DONE on black/purple connector] Determine pins on BCM and ECM then install twisted pair between them.
2. [DONE] Find light blue center tail light pin and run light blue wire to rear with other 4 tail light wires.
3. [Future Video 13] Install ground lug on fuse box square white connector.
4. Add extra power lines to area near gauge cluster for potential tablet connected to OBDII plug. Lights/switches to be added to area. Maybe front/rear view cameras also.
