Adam-Gt- Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 What's different between looms I have a mk1 and the loom has been hacked to pieces can a mk2/3 loom fit a mk1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5e colin Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 you can fit the loom if you get the matching ecu because some pins are diferent also sensor connectors is diferent on some sensors like ait etc etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 The clocks unit has different plugs.Also the MK1 fusebox is different.Top MK2/3 bottom is a MK1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Adam-Gt- Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 Sounds like a right pain in the arse I'll see what I can do with the exsisting loom It's the knock sensor wire that's been cut of which is my main concern Quote Link to post Share on other sites

daniel_g Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Yeah repairing it is a lot easier than swapping the whole loom, especially if its only a MK1 loom you have to hand.You can unplug the two white plugs from the fusebox, along with the large red & black fuses just under them, this splits the ancillary loom away and you can fix it on bench easier or replace this section if its too badly fucked.
