E8 missing Ignition output 3 & 4 wires. Can I put them in?

just got an E8, used ,with harness but while sorting and labeling the wire i realized its missing wires for IG 3 & 4. Is this to say that the ECU does not have function for these outputs, or its a factory mistake with the harness? If so, is it difficult to install these missing wires?

Thanks

You can always add circuits back in. Just need the pins and wires. If you need pins, let me know.

Thanks for the reply. Not being cheap, but I am not in the US and would like to going soon. Could you let me know if I could simply remove an unused pin and wire from the same harness and put it into these positions?

Yep. Can do that too. The connectors are really easy to work with. Only caution is that most of time the pins do not easily pull out of the back of the connector. It's best to have a fine tool to push the pin out from the front so you're not stressing the crimp too much. There is a tool available, but it's easy to take a cheap jeweler's screwdriver and shave it down to size to slide in the front of the pin to push it out. Obviously, the tool needs to be the right size to not damage the pin.

Thanks for this valuable info. I am releaved to find out that the ECU has function on those pins although the wires on the connector are missing.
