Anyone know of a XE into corsa wiring guide with pictures. Ive got wires, plugs and looms everywhere. I need pics of what looms should be on the engine, and what to do in the footwell. Starting to get annoyed

Any help appreciated.

Cheers.

All you do is use the XE engine loom, feed it into the footwell and match colours to colours.

You will need the 'Started loom' of the corsa though. while the XE is still out, simply swap them over in the exact places they came from on the X16.

Pics to explain:


Im guessing that i cut off the 9pin plug that im holding, and wire it into the apparent 3 plugs that are on the XE loom?




Now this is the end of my XE loom that feeds into the cabin, there doesnt seem to be any plugs to cut off and join to the 9 pin





Any help plz.

Well here's the thing, its come from a corsa XE, so i assumed the loom would be ready to go strait in, however, even if it was in another corsa it should still have something to connect to the interior loom.

Yea mate, I can see where all the plugs go into the engine, and i can see where the loom plugs into the ecu, but there's no-where for my 9pin interior loom to plug into.
