(On a sidenote, making a new thread in the hatchback section is probably the smartest option).

I can't find a mate for this wire, it's the BATTERY wire on the ignition system. Last wire I need to connect to start my car. Can anyone help me out?

 

The little letters that run along the lines are the wire color, abbreviated, figure out the color for the wire, find it and see wherr its at, or look for a unplugged plug that reaches and matches plug on ignition.

Yours truely,
Flow

 

I understand that,

However no wire seems to match up to the wire marked BATT, that flows into 45A.

That is my question, where should i find the mate for it?

Sincerely,
Shiroun

 

That 45a is a fuse, trace from there I guess

Maybe

Has a better manual, or wait for someone else to chime in.

Best of luck,

My problem, Flow, is that I can't find the fuse. I have absolutely NO idea where it's located since neither fuseboxes has a slot for it.

Sincerely,
Shiroun

 

You are saying the fuse box under the hood doesn't have a slot for it?

 

Yes, and the plug won't even reach the hood. It's extremely short, it could maybe stretch to the passenger side ECU, for reference


EDIT:

55A is on the fusebox. 45A isn't. So that leaves the -*- to be figured out.

 

Haha, the picture of your floorboard didn't load. You are trying to plug in the ignition switch wiring? The small plug goes into the left side of the under dash fuse box. The bigger plug goes into the dash harness.

Unless I am just not understanding what you are asking. Are you talking about the randomly placed ignition coil. I guess be more clear about that of which you are referring to.

 

No, you're understanding it correctly. I'll check tommorow afternoon, but I was looking at the dash fuse box insessantly, and i couldn't find a spot for it anywhere.

Worst comes to worst, I'll just get a 12V fuse and run it directly to the battery.

 

I'm lost without a picture.

So.............................one end is connected to nothing, and you need to figure out where to connect it.

and,

the other end is connected to what exactly?

 

One photo back up. lost the other i'll fix it tommorow

 

I hate that picture. The coil pack should be in the engine bay, not in the cabin.

 

Where does the ignition coil go in the engine bay? o_O

 

It's not a stock part, so I'm not really sure why you're even using it.

The stock coil is inside the distributor.

I'll pull my dash back out tomorrow and get some pics of the connections around the key cylinder and under dash fuse box.

 

Hey spug, I ended up doing this to the ignition. Now it beeps when I ground it (atleast temporarily, then it shuts off pretty quick). Beep is all I get.




Edit.

I'm thinking of splicing the wires, getting 2 more 10g wires and 2 more of the splice things, and just using switches to start/cut power to whatever I want. Hoping that works.

Now, this eliminates the key-turn system, so I'm going to haveto come up with a way to have my own personal security on it. Not sure what I'll do.

 

Also keep in mind that if you plan on leaving the battery back there you're going to either have to vent the battery box to the outside of the car, or get a sealed battery that doesn't vent harmful vapors.

You're also going to need fatter wire to the battery, since the longer the run, the fatter it should be. You can shorten that ground up as well.

 

Already increased the battery wire to 6 gauge I believe.

The box I have is sealed to avoid harmful vapors, i just took off the top for now.

I got power going, however this is all I can get (Rear lights, not sure if break lights work, head lights, and regular front lights. No turning signals (although plugged in), or windshield wipers.)


Edit: The lights in the above photo are my break lights. They're on when I ground the negative.

Gonna put some switches in tommorow. That might help.

 

Didnt help. Disconnected all power to the ignition and the car magically turns on the breaks and headlights like this when grounded. I'm wtfing like crazy.


Edit:

Grabbed a multimeter, wires get power. I just need to feed them to where they're supposed to go and it should work.

Going to try that tommorow, if I can read this crap.

Yellow is BATT right?

 

Yellow what? There's alot of yellow wires.

 

I'll take a photo of it tommorow first thing.

 

Update: THink i figured it out. Will update in two hours.

 

awesome

 

Its right here. It was a b*tch to find.

 

I told you before where it went....

 

You were right.

Turns out the sunroof and the ignition were wired together (WTF?).
Fixed the problem, put the stock ignition back.

Not all my grounds are set-up, so I don't have anything besides the BREAK light come on, and a smoking wire (lol 23g wire used in the ignition. ****ing idjit botched the wiring. Fixing it to 16/12g tommorow). Head my starter move a bit, but again, not all my grounds are set-up.

Thank you guys! I appreciate it!
