Boxy4e Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) Hi folks, Apologies for the long winded thread but thought someone here might be able to help me. I have an EP70 starlet with 98 spec ep91 running gear but I can't get it to fire up and the negative battery terminal and the earth beside the righthand headlamp is getting hot. I'll give as much info as I can. I bought the conversion loom from a guy who had it made. Basically the original loom stays in place and does the alternator, starter etc and the new loom does the engine and ecu. It is a basic plug and play loom with positive and negative feed. There's 3 connectors to be wired from ecu connector 1 pin 3 (ignition feed from ignitor coil) and pin 24 (computer ground) . Ecu connector 3 pin 1 (switched battery power). On connector 1 I've pin 3 going to the ignition and pin 24 earthed behind the dash board and on connector 3 I've pin 1 going to the positive battery terminal. I'm assuming this is wrong? I've earth's going from d/s engine mount to shock turret,loom to icv bolt, loom to alternator, loom to starter and negative battery terminal to rightside body to gearbox mount At a bit of a lost cause now as I'd love to have this on road. Apologies for the long thread but any info would really be appreciated. Cheers Edited September 11, 2019 by Boxy4e Quote Link to post Share on other sites
