Pre-start checks underway
Monday night I finished mounting the MS, grounding the engine harness and removed the stupid window control module and relocated the window switches to the main switch panel. (no pics)
Last night I started going through everything on the MS. I quickly learned that almost none of the sensors were working. Apparently I forgot to add ground wires on the harness (not on the engine bay side thankfully) for the TPS, MAP, CTS and IAT. oops. After adding the 4 ground wires everything worked great.
The next issue is the coolant fan control. I need to add a transistor today to drive the relay. The singal that Im using for fan control now (I was using something different before) just wont turn on a relay, or if it does the current limits are very marginal. Should have time to add that at lunch.
Next big step is to connect the VR sesnsor and make sure I have the polarity correct while cranking with a scope.
After that a quick check to see that Im getting spark, and it should be ready to turn over saturday!
