My wonderful problem child... (engine,electrical etc)
First off I just want to say hello to every one.
Now for the fun part, So about 2 months ago, I had to do an engine swap do to failed combustion on the previous 13b. so after an entire weekend of pulling the engine and then swaping parts on to the other engine then dropping it back in, we finally where in buisness. so after putting the turbo back on and connecting the exhaust and so on and so forth, I was ready to start it up and see if my dreams where about to come true, Little did I know that my friend in all his infinite wisdom, forgot to tighten the stuff he was incharge of saying that he was just putting it on there since it wasnt ready to drive he just wanted to see if it fired up (I found this out after the following happend). so I crank the engine and it starts idling and then once i get out to admire the what we have accomplished, an oil line blew off and sprayed oil every where and the car stalled out. Now because of that and some other issues that have happened im left with the following problems.
PFC wont turn on and im getting no power to any ECU in general
No fuel pressure
However the thing that confuses me (which is quite simple seeing as im still pretty new to the wiring and the car in general) is I have AUX power but nothing going to the ECU
I'm pretty much at wits end and I have no idea what I'm suppose to do as far as trouble shooting the ECU and chasing the wires, any help would be wonderful.
a quick load out of the car incase it helps
1993 Rx-7 FD
Single turbo conversion
front mount
850cc primary
1600cc secondary
battery still in stock location.
again any ideas on what I should do to fix it would be a great help

Have you checked any fuses? I would get the factory shop manual out and find out what wire powers the ecu and see if its supplying voltage and do the same with the fuel pump. Hope that helps. If no one else responds PM Howard Coleman or Chadwick either one of them can point you in the right direction.

i did that and i still have AUX power,but some things i noticed (besides the power fc controller still not turning on also pulled the FC and it doesnt smell like it was burnt out)
my oil gauge is out of control when i turn the key it shoots up to 60lbs with a red light and my airbag light blinks often, still no fuel pressure.
sorry it took so long to reply i just got back to my car today and im still trying to figure out what is wrong with it.
any help will be most appreciated
