My garage concurs lol. Tomorrow will be a clean up and re-check (go over whats done) and list out what needs done. At a nice spot now I think. Most of the problematic area’s are either resolved or I know what I need.
Im glad I started getting worried about performing checks on the harness. So I prepared for initial start-up, just clicking. I first assumed it was batterie and after getting it tested and fiddling around some more I started becoming suspicious of the draw and amps that the tweaked harness was capable of; now I could not have it “grounded” well enough (its straight to the cylinder head, another 8ga off the bottom end to subframe) but I ran an 8ga from original EPS 70amp fused terminal and it started cranking right over. Ok! Got it started... no throttle. Day later and some time on ls1tech.com I figured id try some of the information given there... swapped two pins on the pedal connector, still nothing. After probably racking my head for another couple of hours I reset the ecu and blam! Got throttle. Must have tripped a cel when it was initially pinned wrong and needed a reset. Next, the coolant gauge (only been able to get it up to one bar) no gauge, no fans (I’m assuming) so I dont want to leave it running for any period of time. Been through them both resistances go up as it gets hotter; all good at the sensor’s. Now I remember I never re flashed my ecu back to stock before starting all this big mistake on my end. So I grab my k tuner and hook it up to port... no ecu link. Well sh*t. Checking everything I notice my IG coil fuse blown. If I pull out the far left ecu connector from tweaked harness it does not blow, as soon as I plug it in, it blows. Turn key off, disconnect batterie, install fuse, install connector, connect batterie, turn key on, blow fuse.... soo no fixin that yet. Oh and I had to run my own switched 12v source for my fuel pump relay. My oem switched signal is suddenly not working anymore (maybe the harness has nothing to do with it). Hope to have a good productive conversation with someone come Mon. Thats just insane; for the amount he charges?? Wtf...
