Afm Readin 100% 5.1v On Ignition

[SXY_33]

Hey guys,

the other day i was was soldering my z32 afm plug onto my series 2 r33. this is wat i connected:

original Afm------------------Car-----------------------z32 (markings)

1-----------------------Orange + Blue-------------------- (B) signal

2-----------------------Blue + White---------------- © + (D) Joined the two ground wires.

3-----------------------Black + White------------------- (E) 12v

while i was soldering my lil sister decided to turn the key to ignition (coz she likes the blue lights on the cd player) so some of the wires touched, but i heard no noises, i pulled the key out and continued, figured the worst that could happen was a busted fuse.

when i finished i pluged in my z32 and turned the key to ignition, and my safc2 is reading 100% airflow, so i plug in the ecutalk cable and it too is showing 5.1v which i thought was wierd as the car is off. so i try turn it on n nothing, it just wont turn over. sometimes it almost does but. so i solder back the stock afm, thinking maybe the z32 is faulty but i hav the same problem.

i checkd all the fuses under the dash and they r all fine. then i thought it might be the ECU. so i tried turning the car on without an afm connected n it starts. it idles round 1100rpm and sounds normal for a cold start.

ive double and triple checked the wiring and its correct according to every wiring diagram i can find on the net. i plan to put a z32 ecu with a nistune board, but dont want to continue without solving this problem.

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. its just doing my head it!

id say youve damaged the ecu

change to another ECU and check again

youve probably fried the AFM too

thanks mate.

u sayin any afm i hook up to it now will prob get fried???

thanks mate.

i would check with another ecu first

yep was the ecu. took it out n opened it up, checked the pinout n founf the afm pin, and sure enough there were burn marks on the ecu. got a z32 and hopefully wont take too long to get the nistune fitted.
