Microtech just install, questions about factory guage wiring.
Everything works great except
1. water temp gauge is buzzing constantly and not hooked-up. What color is the wire or wires I tap into and can I use the micro tech wiring at the ecu for the signal? I would guess its in the passener kick panel were the tach wire was connected.
2. Speedometer not hooked up. I would say its in the harness comeing from the tranny but again I done know the color or location of such wire. Also were to connect it.
3. reverse lights don't work which also comes from tranny harness I believe also.
4. My ABS light is on but I'm not positive it has anything to do wih the new ecu or not.
Those are pretty much the only things left. My main problem is that I don't have a factory service book with the color codes. This is probably a shot in the dark trying to get answer for this but I have other sources if it comes down to it if I have to. Thanks to whoever attemps to help.

don't know much.
i think problem #1
just ground the coolant sensor wire and it'll shut it
or hook up the sensor to the overflow coolant tant,
if want to warned about loss/not enought coolant
#2
i don't think it's really a electric wire.
i think more like a throttle cable with one small gear at end.
and plug to the end of the trans ( near the driveshaft?)
#3
uh....... $hiet i forgot...
just try to find repair manual online (*.pdf file)
i think they're in there....
