Where To Get My Difi Guages Hooked Up..?


Recommended Posts

what guages have you got?

you'll need to make sure you have:

1 - the actual sensor (eg. oil temp sensor)

2- wire to conect the sensor to the control unit

3 - wire to connect the gauge to the control unit

if the control unit's already wired in then it will be very simple to get the guages happening...

man thats too cheap especially if you know what you are doing.

i am on your side of town will do it for $120 an hour with a minimum charge of 1 hour

:dry:

Just make sure you provide your trade qualifications and prove you are covered by insurance, in case you fark up and fry the electrics.

Hell if you are charging w/shop rates i would want it done professionally at a w/shop. :(

$80?? $120??

At those rates, go see an auto-elec Mark.

I still have the manual in pdf form somewhere.

PM me your email address & I'll find it & send it.

My suggestion is you get a switch put in incase the cops hassle you.

Hope the 34's going well!

Mark,

Here ya go:

I think it was a Link Controller II.

Go to page 27 for the wiring diag for this - lists colour of wires, etc.

If you need connectors, maybe go to Jaycar with the control box & ask them. If they don't sell them, they will know who would.

:0)

Go to an autoelec they charge more than $120 an hour and why do most people with japanese cars or anything difficult like conversions ecu's stay away from auto elecs?

because they charge heaps even if they don't get it running and most of the time its not done right

shut the f**k up if you have no idea because good people don't fry electrics because they don't f**k up. and if they do they don't charge you to fix like most.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
