Hi all,

I need to try and sort my engine loom wiring tomorrow, as one loom has the small plug and one has the large plug.

I do have an adapter that I got from Ryan on here, but It still leaves me with a loose wire on the adapter and one on the car loom. I also don't 100% trust it not to fry anything - but I guess I could give it a go.

Ideally I want to pull the pins out of the OFAB loom and put them in the 1.1 loom plug.

Any help welcome! I know this has been done 100's of times but I'm overly paranoid and haven't done it before!!

Also, The only wiring that looks suitable for the Amal valve has a 2 pin plug on instead of the usual two spade plug - is this normal?

Cheers

what colour is the 2 pin plug you have cos as far as i remember the only 2 pin is the air/fuel plug on the inlet and its 2 pin on the xr2i are you sure its a turbo loom ,The amal valve has a long wire and an earth on it

It's black, what are the differences between 2i and RST looms?

[mikeymikeyp]

Thanks for the link, so are the pin-outs for a 2i loom the same? But the ECU pins different between 2i/rst?

This is the loom I bought, the plug is in the top left of the photo and is the wire is long/has been extended..

ian also had a look at my loom which i was dreading as it looked a nightmare, much to my suprise he disconnected the bits i did'nt need and helped me lable all the connectors

the loom went from this



to this, much happier
the parts with the green and yellow tape are not needed as their either diagnostic ports
or parts from the fiesta turbo loom which basically just are not used
i plan to tidy the loom up later on, but before i cut anything i want to make sure the engine runs first

Maybe IH wasn't planning on running an Amal valve on Rob's engine?

Well I had a look at the adapter I have and also noticed the rev counter wire is cut 2" from the plug on the engine loom plug engine side for some reason!

[mikeymikeyp]

You can usually take a feed from the edis to the rev counter ,ill look and see what wire it is for u

Bottom of the pic the one with the earth on it is the amal the other long one will be the crank sensor

Thanks, I finally figured that out last night when I realised I have an ERST amal with different plug!!
