wire harness after single?
What do you guys do to all the wires that went to the solenoids in the rats nest? chop them off?
thanks nick |
chop'd them off
|
how many of them do you chop off, and does it throw any codes?
|
Chop them off, but be sure that the Idle solenoid still has power. This mod might require reconnecting about 3 or 4 black w/white stripe wires back together. They are all located together where the solenoid rack wires branch off the main engine harness.

All the 3/4 wires are from the same solenoid? and you just splice them all together?

No they are the +12V supply for all the solenoids. Basically if you cut it then your Idle air control valve won't operate at all so idle will be erretic. More than likely an unassuming person would change the bleed screw to lower the idle speed and then it would have to be adjusted with the weather. Basically the supply branches out at the root of the solenoid rack so that is why there is 3 or 4 different b/w wires. Just connect them all. You only need 2, but save the trouble of testing them all and solder them all.

solder them to eachother right?
Thanks for all your info, Im still learning alot myself.. :) nick |
someone told me I had to put resistors on the wires too, do I have to?
thanks |
ok clue me in i dont see the idle solenoid on the diagram!! am i being a moron! this is always possible!
|
yeah, deff more info on this
|
?

I'm pretty sure it's the solenoid that bolts to the bottom of the UIM right behind the throttle body. Most people that go single elliminate it (I don't think the Haltech can even control it), & most block off kits come with block offs for it.
I don't have it, my idle is a little odd as I sometimes have to blip the throttle to get it to settle back down to 800 but I live with it & don't make adjustments from cool to warm temperatures. |
So all of these I can chop off?

Idle control who needs that? :D

The IAC sits on the UIM right next to the TPS. The ECU controls the amount of air that goes past the TB by opening/closing of the IAC. You might very well have idle problems if you don't run an IAC and your tuning is off. We have discussed the problems in the PFC forum in a tuning thread (I think). Eliminating the IAC can be simulated by turning off the idle-ign cntr on the PFC options menu.
So what questions do people have? Mainly I would suggest unwrapping the tape around the harness and look at what wires you are cutting. The black w/ white or black w/ yellow are +12V supplies. |
good info guys
going single myself. |
thanks spyfish I had no idea. Ill check to see if I ****ed this up
what! the forum is editing out my ****s! what is this new! you cant delete a **** what is going on here hahaha How about fizuck! YEEEAAAASS |
