I converted my vr
Leads into microphone cable for less noise obviously. Did not do the two tooth vr sensor though. But now I get worse noise on my cas than with stock harness I get a 2000 rpm spike at idle a bit now. That did not happen before. Is this becaize I did not convert my other wheel to quality cable? Thinking I might need to ground the mega squirt a little n better

 

Where is your shield grounded?

Are you saying that the two tooth is unshielded at this point?

 

If you did not ground the shield on one side of the microphone cable, or did not shield the 2-tooth sensor at all, then either of those things could cause your problems.

I simply cut the original harness for the main wheel. The two tooth wheel is still connected with original harness and should be grounded. The microphone cable is grounded on a free pin, 15, I think... I never cared for the quality of the factory harness, but my ms came with harness adapter, so I used it. I suspect I need to replace the two tooth leads with microphone cable as well.

Also, is it possible for a transistor to fail on my fan circuit? It worked before, and now does not. I still have a good signal to my base and good ground on emitter, but no continuity with ground and collector when activated. I have spares. Could it fail from bad resistor or something like that?

 

Yeah... So replace both leads with microphone cable? And how about the transistor? Is it probably bad?

 

The transistor could go bad if it shorted or the current draw on it was higher than it was rated for.

I'd use the mic cable for both, and make sure the shield is grounded on one end.
