Need a little help from some fella FD owners in Atlanta.

Hi,
Just wondering if any one has experience in electrical wiring for the 3rd gen around atlanta area? The reason I am asking is that I just recently rebuilt the engine and finally put the car back together, but now I am experiencing some electrical problem that preventing the car from cranking. If anyone around Kennesaw/Marietta area that would so kindly offer to take a look @ the problem would be very helpful, I will buy dinner if whoever can figure out the problem. Thanks
my cell is 404-423-6460

Marco

does the pfc show any errors, ie any highlighted voltages in the sensor/switch menu? What kind of problems are you having?

If you have AAA coverage or don't mind paying the towing fee, have them take your car to UAB (Ultimate Auto Boutique) http://uabcustomcars.com/index2.php

It's located just off of I-85/985 first exit past Home Depot just off the corner of Auto Zone

Albert is the man you want to talk to, he's a great guy and knows his stuff with cars. They have a lot of good people there that do top work on all imports and domestics. If Albert is not available his wife is usually answering the phones and she'll help out too.

You can tell him/her that Steve from Japan sent ya


EDIT: They more than likely won't even charge you for the repairs depending on the situation. Even at that their prices are very good.

THanks for the respond, TIM, I did not get any signal from the power FC, meaning no power into the cabin. I believe my main fuse blew (120A) I will find out tonight.

My mistake, from the first post I didn't take it as it wasn't getting power to the ecu, just a problem that caused it to not crank. Key on but not cranking, does the solenoid click when you take it to the on position?

Ok, it WAS the MAIN FUSE...the car fires, but idle really rough. My power FC is pretuned for the mild street port, but since this is large port motor, would this make my car idle really rough? It stays around 800 rmps.....Also, here was my other questions on the forum,

Does anybody have a wiring diagram of how the Emission harness is connected w/ the front and dash harness. There are 2 wires coming off the emission harness which are blue and white, and I didnt pay attention to the two when I yanked the harness out. There are 2 blue connectors and 2 white connectors which are males and females, and I wasnt sure which one goes in which. Looks like the short white connector near the firewall off the emission harness needs to plug into the white connector off the dash harness since they are next to each other, but then that leaves the other 2 white connectors plug into each other off the same harness, and that didnt make much sense to me, can anyone tell me which one ought to go?? Thanks so much

Marco
