hey all

 

i recently scored an AE71 4AC rolla from a mate who started building it up as a rally car however all of the wiring has been removed, i was wondering if anyone has or could draw me up a diagram so i can get it going again, i only want the minimum wiring needed as wiring isnt my best field!!! , i also want to put the following in aswell:

 

-exterior kill switch

-inside on/off switch

-push button start

-aftermarket temp guage

 

any help would be greatly appreciated to finally get it moving!!!!

Ok, I have Steve doing this on the rally car this month. Basically you need to write down what you want in the car, including spotlight wiring and navigator's light, and a couple of LED interior lights .. plus maybe one in the boot and two under the bonnet in case you are stuck in the middle of the night somewhere.

 

Then decide which wires are live as soon as you turn on the kill switch, and which wires are only live when you turn the key on. Assign fuses according to what the maximum load will be, as the manufacturers do. You can stick with their system and add an extra fuse per pair of spotlights if you like.

 

Then pull the wiring out of the car and identify which wire is which. Do it one loomb at a time, you probably won't have much to worry about towards the rear of the car.

 

Cut out the wires you DON'T want, add the ones you decided you needed as extras, and put it back in the car.

 

Throw out the fusible links and fit fuses off the kill switch. One for the 'start' button, one for the headlights/brakelights (permanently powered) and one for the rest of the car ('On' only when key is on)

 

You'll have some extras if you're using electric fuel pumps and injectors with ECU and sensors. Easy enough to incorporate.

 

Then throw away the exess 10kg of wire, most of the dashboard and stacks of switches and lights you don't need..

 

OK, the pictures are too small when saved on the server, so if you want them you'll have to PM me. They go from 1Mb to 80Kb
