yeah go for it, but most of the numpties on here will never look at it and will still post up random requests for help and the ones that do read it will give you multiple u2u's asking for further info.

yea, you use the corsa starter alt loom on the engine,

then wire up the engines loom and ecu to the corsa like this...

Green - revcounter feed, wire to green on corsa plug (some corsas may not have this wire, in which case use a bullet connector and run a green wire to the rear of the clocks if you wish to fit a set with a revcounter.

Brown/Blue - ECU light, match to corsa plug

Brown/White - Diagnostics, match to corsa plug

Brown/Yellow - Diagnostics, match to corsa plug

Blue/red (thick) - Fuel pump feed, match to corsa plug

Blue - Coolant temp sensor feed for dash clocks, match to plug

Red/White - Autobox, unused in conversion

Red/Blue (thin) - electronic speedo feed, match to corsa plug

Red (large) - Battery +ve

Black (thin) - Battery ?ve I moved this inside and matched it to the corsa plug
Black/green - Aircon, unused in conversion

I put some effort into rewiring the loom, I moved the permanent live feed to inside the car at the 9 pin plug instead of to the battery, the A/B fuelling plug is in there as well etc, but this isn?t necessary.

Fuel relay block remains as is.

If it's a 1.2 Ecotec then none of the wires are in the right place and it's a bot more complicated.

Na, the 1.2 16v uses the same management as far as I am aware...
