I'm half way through the wiring but I have a problem...I don't really know how to read the key logger. Can someone take a look at these two pics from another thread and tell me what's wrong with them?


I'm basically counting 4 CKP teeth and I should see the 3 CMP teeth falling...where?

BTW, I'm using the yellow/blue from the 1994 EGR purge valve solenoid to pin #8 on the VVTuner. I don't think Dimitris put anything on the circuit since it's been unplugged for 9-months with the car running fine.

On the coils for the 2001, please tell me if I'm right here:
black is GND
black/white is power
brown, brown/white, brown/yellow, or blue/yellow is signal
The wire diagrams online don't match my coils. My coils have different wire colors, the brown/white goes to coil #1, brown goes to coil #2 which does not match the diagrams.

I haven't finished wiring yet. That is from another thread and I was hoping to go into this with some knowledge so I don't panic. Something engine management related went wrong on the green car last night so I really need the white car to work today, lol. I don't care to trouble shoot two cars. (I think it's IAT related on the green car.)

On the 2001, the brown/yellow goes to the rear coil that sparks on cylinders 1 and 4, while brown goes to the front coil that sparks cylinders 2 and 3.
Those are the correct wires (Black/White - Power, Black - Ground, others - signal). Brown/White to coil 2 (forward one), Black/Yellow to coil 1 (rear one) on my 2001.

There is no brown/yellow on my car, but now I know what do do. I'm going to break from the wire diagram because my coils, in the factory wiring plastic stuff, untouched, makes brown/white go to coil #1. I'm going to write this down and save it for future reference. Is this a big "no no" in the "automotive electronics guild of people who have a clue"?

Its either black/white (which is 12V), or brown/yellow. Maybe the yellow seems like white after so many years under the hood?
