Step 1) buy non-hacked complete harness appropriate for your year car

Step 2) install said harness

Step 3) drive car and leave harness alone

I am always puzzled with this very response...

Let's make a list.

1) Why would you buy a car that you absolutely have no knowledge of, expect to rewire, have no automotive wiring experience?

2) Do you own a multimeter?!

3) You have no money? Knowledge equals money. You buy a car that needs work with the knowledge to fix it or you pay someone else to do it.

4) Do you have a multimeter yet?

5) Why on earth would you purchase an iconic sports car but then not have any money to fix it? Reminds me of the guy here locally 10 years ago that won a ferrari but couldnt drive it because he couldnt afford the insurance and so it just sat in the garage.

I work as car audio installer so knowledge of multimeter and auto wiring is not a problem

Knowledge = money ??? Wat about experience = knowledge but not money

Yes I always expected to fix it myself along with everything I've done to my previous car without prior knowledge and learn during my process of my current project no I'm not an expert on the rotary engine but I rather learn and teach myself how it works if any help is given I would appreciate

Best buy c'mon now wires are wire some are thicker then others and some are positive and some are negative seems about the same now that I gotta look at a diagram to determine what there purpose is a lil different I'm not saying my job is easy but I should get some credit for what I do besides it's not jus sterios it's custom alarms setups and electric unlock conversions and more it's a lot with wireing can't tell me that doesn't count it's a lot of custom work required and it's all done with on the job experience on a lil shop on the streets ghetto yes pays the bills of course I'm jus lookin for suggestions and advise from anyone who has gone this path not to be judge on my knowledge seriously I could jus ask a customer what they think about my job or about my work if I wanted that

You have a point.
I've wired a few cars and have no specific training, just the desire to do it.

Here's the thing about wiring a FC- you're working with very proprietary, FC only stuff.
Like the bezel switches, which are hard to replace and must be used.
Relatively speaking, the engine harness is much simpler than the chassis wiring.

You do need to be very familiar with the whole system before you begin or it's going to get weird down the line.

Okay, I got to back him up on this. I have been a professional installer for 6 years and went to college for automotive. I specialize in security and convenience as well as tracking devices and surveillance.

I have done all 6 years at best buy. I just recently walked out of best buy due to a nutcase manager.

With that said, I know nothing of the OP's skills.

Well idk if u could tell (based on pic) but so far I have tackled the emissions harness personally I think it's not bad I have the wire coming out thru a hole behind the tb but I'm lookin for a different location to run my engine and 2front harness I might jus rewire my right headlight so it can run with my emission harness instead but I got a plug I'm not sure about a plug that's in the front I'll post pic

Have you got the wiring schematic for your car yet?

The single dangling wire could be for the alarm on the hood latch, not sure what the plug is for but it's all the manual...you really shouldn't have to ask us for this info.

That connector in your hands is for the AC it plugs in about 6 inches away from the tank near the passenger headlight

That clutch switch is part of the starter interlock system (doesn't go to the ECU at all) and is meant to prevent the terminally clueless from starting in gear. If the clutch pedal is not depressed and the switch activated, the starter relay is dead.

It is commonly bypassed.

Kinda lost but do u mean it's like a safety feature to prevent from starting in gear??

Or is it like a check connector to find out if the relay is working

Indirectly, yes.

The system actually doesn't care if the car is in gear but it won't let the starter activate until the clutch is pushed in.
