The camera cutoff at the point of hooking up the ignition wire. You get the point anyway. I'll make a video for the Check Engine Light next.

@kravmaga7070
@kravmaga7070 3 жыл бұрын
SO TELL ME IF IM CLOSE OR MOSTLY RIGHT HERE; typicaly GM runs a very large 12v cable directly from battery to starter. Then a large ground from starter to frame or engine block. then a still large but smaller cable directly from +12V starter post to fuseblock under the dash, this is the feed for fuseblock and also a much smaller wire from the key igntion switch back out to the starter which triggers the bendix to kickin and starter to turnover? if this is correct can i reuse the large red wire from starter to fuseblock to refeed fuseblock, and i can reuse that trigger wire to the new LS fuseblock to trigger starter from ls fuseblock/harness?

The harness I bought didn't have a Park Neutral Safety Switch or back up lights. I want to add them to my LS Conversion. Might you know which wires are needed to add to the Red or Blue Connectors so I can connect them to the park neutral switch on the transmission? Thank you in advance for your help.

When you ran the pink wire did you only run it to the ignition wire on the harness and into the relay ? That’s how i did mines but it cranks but don’t want to start up not sure what is giving power to the fuse box
@n5yiz
@n5yiz 2 жыл бұрын
Make sure the ignition wire has power during cranking. That's a common mistake. If it's cranking you should be getting close.

I might have been wrong about the PCM needing PN safety. You wouldn't really need it anyway. The wiring in the column will provide PN safety via starter interrupt.
