lilpusher Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 I got a 2.2L from a '98 legacy m/t. The recyclers refused to remove any of the harness and only would give me the ecu connector with a length of wire. Any way of figuring out which wire goes to which pin? thanks.

davebugs Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Don't understand the question - a pic would help. Usually everything you need is on the engine. They get lazy and cut throttle cables, heater hoses, IAC hoses, etc. I've never had a problem with wireing harness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86ruguy Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 the question i have is .....is this motor for an EA-EJ swap or are you putting it in a newer car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 building a harness using an OEM ECU is going to be a project! especially with an OBD II engine. But, you should be able to find what you're looking for here: http://www.northursalia.com/modifications/misc/wiring/wiring.html http://www.dunebuggyarchives.com/subbug/manuals.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is what you are going to have to weigh cost vs time. If the scrapper is giving you a smoking deal on the engine, say 200 or less then it might be worth it to get the engine. Complete harnesses can be had on NASIOC or possibly on RS25. If he is charging more, then I would look for a donor vehicle. Also, is the engine complete, meaning coil pack, alternator and other parts are still there if not it can get pretty pricey trying to piece together all of the parts that you will need. You will need to get the coilpack, ignitor and the plug, MAF and the plug, O2 sensor plug, Fuel tank pressure sensor. I am a fan of a donor car. I did the BRAT by pieces and it was more expense than just getting a car. If you do get just the harness plugs, make sure that you also get the ECU and the plugs that go to that. That way you will have a reference point to start rebuilding. Some of the wires are shielded so you will need to go to radio shack and get shielded wires with two wires inside of them. Finally get a good copy of the wiring diagrams and have at it. You can probably post pictures of the plugs for help. Hey Chux, think it might be a good idea to add pictures of the various plugs in the next version of the tutorial. BW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
