Default IAB help on swap

If I'm not mistaken, the signal coming from the ECU should be the ground.

Also, I assume you have all of the necessary vacuum components hooked up properly?

I don't have the wiring diagram handy, but I honestly recall reading that the ECU's trigger is actually a ground, and that would mean you need a 12V source also.

I was mistaken. After checking the Helm, the positive wire (red/blue) comes from the ECU , and the other wire (black) is grounded.

The Helm is for an OBD-2, but the wiring of the IAB should be the same.
