no, the first that were already on the green wires. i think they are 30K or something judging by the colors which may be why the dash tach isn't moving (no spark)

i spent hours last night building the harness from scratch lol
someone should really label the parts each wire goes to from this

and i say that because there is 2 Bl/w and 2 Gn/w, one of each has a yellow line, which i presumed to be the sensor one, however, since i was making it from scratch i was guessing lol

thats why those pin positions are called out on the oem side diagram. make sure your clutch input and fan output match...

my clutch switch is bypassed so i didnt hook that up
it doesnt specify which is which, unless im looking in the wrong places

the colors with yellow highlight i used for the ignitor and CAS, car runs so i assume i assumed right lol
so the 2 without yellow are for clutch and fans? i didnt solder those 2 to the harness connector yet, just the db37.
i dont have the fan mod installed, granted i dont have the IAC either, though IAC works.
presuming my fan doesnt work, what part numbers will i need? i have a couple old ecus from other cars i robbed a 1k 1/4 off of last night, along with a few other parts. only thing i dont have is the .01uf cap

correct.

(but look again on the harness diagram--the blue/green CAS input is label with pin 25, and the spark output is labeled with pin 31)


you can use the middle led circuit to run the fan relay...see the diagram i posted a bunch of posted back.

where are you at Braineack?

bypassed CKP and CMP to the ecu, still dropping off, so it has to be something with the ecu physical setup

you know a lot of times when you see RPM spikes like that it's a bad ignitor...


that's what mine was doing after a while of running on those old kingofleet mods.

the ignitor is built into the coils correct? so if i change the coil pack in theory it should go away
