This plugs in to the main car loom, on mine it's in the dirvers kick panel



This isn't used



The bit that mates to this is in your original loom, it'll be obvious when you see it





These go on the thermostat housing



This goes across the top of the fuel rail, Air flow meter and throttle position sensor on it as well



Yes these are earths, they earth out on the fuel rai

Can't remember where the other ones go but if they go anywhere they will only fit one plug normally and be fairly obvious after its in place

Its a electric one pal cause I remember the lad saying there's a plug for the speedo ?!?

And which part of the loom goes to the fuel pump ? Because I've read there's a thick red an blue wire that goes to the pump relays behind the glove and you have to bridge them or something

Yeah its the charge loom I'm not sure what bits you change on that as mine was in a corsa already so it was a case of just fitting it

There'll be a black retangular thing that is your fuel pump relay, they wire in somewhere but can't remember where been a while since I did mine so can't remember it all!

***Little update 11/4/12***

Alright made a start on the loom today with Greg pointing me in the right direction

Ive taken a few pics of what ive done because people who are in the same boat as me and

struggle with wiring, so hopefully it will help someone out whos doing an XE conversion

heres how it went

Before i started


Locate the plug with 4 pins and 1 missing in the middle



Strip the tape off ect..



Cut the wires and leave the BLUE,GREEN wire in the bay



Stripped the charge loom



Stripped the ECU plug



Before



Cut the plug off and all these wires go into the footwell



Before they go in the footwell



And both plug wires pulled through the bulkhead and in the footwell




Thats it for today but more progress tomorrow when i go to Gregs to get some done

ill keep everyone updated

cheers

Kyle

*** little update ***

Been to Gregs today while he looked at the loom, most of its ok apart from plug i need to get off a

1.2 8V and i think an one for the oil pump ill have to double check on that one

Also another minor set back i need to swap my inlet because the throttle body sits down too low for

the powercap to sit on, so to resolve that i need to take the traction control bit off and swap the

throttle body over on to the one with shorter studs and change the butterfly valve to a flat one cause

mines got one with a raised bit on

Not too bad then, how come you need to change the throttle body? Wasn't it used in a corsa before hand?

Yeah it was in one before but i think he said it will sit too low Down or summat like that so Gregs gave me another inlet with shorter studs so I can get rid of the traction control bit at the bottom of the inlet Also it will be easyier doing this so i no where to cut the bulk head see how it goes like

oh nice You shouldn't have to cut the builk head unless you're putting the SFI box on, it should be alright with an ecotec pipe/power cap
