????



The PFC should be plug and play. Check the plug lineup, each one is different and will only go into its corresponding hole. If you do this and you find you still cant get it hooked up, take some digital pics and post them here so we can see what is going on.

Power FC is also made for Hondas. Maybe you got a Honda unit by mistake?

What was the number on the side of the box ?
Should be 414-Z002 or X002 for early cars.

After Mazda quit the US market they changed the ECU to a 16-bit unit which is totally different connector-wise. You cannot fit a Power FC meant for the 16-bit car in an 8-bit car.

Sorry, but i dont think youll shift it on E-bay either unless someone in the US has imported the later 96-on RX-7.

Try it on the european forum ?

Chris
