[@nitesky001]

Real quick note - On the fuel pump relay, you mentioned that the ECU probably sends about 5v to the relay on the green wire so that the relay will send the full 12v out to the fuel pump on the red wire. The idea here is correct but instead of different volts it is amps that are different. The relay's electro-magnet draws a small amp load of current to operate so the green 12v wire is a smaller gauge since it is only handling the small amp load; however, the fuel pump pulls a much larger amp load of 12v power when it is running. Because of this, the 12v red feed wire to the pump must be a larger gauge to handle the larger 12v amp load. Being able to control devices that draw a lot of current through the use of small gauge switch wires is one of the main uses for relays.

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

Thanks so much for this! I'm no expert on electrical so it's hard to explain some things, I know how to use them, but not always the principal behind them.

The reason they did not use the same power wire to feed the ignition relay and fuel pump is because you should have a fused power source for the fuel pump

So I’m ls swapping a 1935 hudson it’s a shell the only wires in it are the eBay ls harness. I’m trying to wire it to start I have a good battery and I’m sure of that but when I crank it drops from 12 to bellow 9. the way I have it wired is the red wire to the relay is wired straight to the battery and I have no spark I am at a loss. I’ve checked grounds 100 times cleaned everything.

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

Go get your self a ignition switch from AutoZone or O'Reilly's. Now run a wire from the start terminal to the little starter post. Run yourself a wire from the battery to the battery terminal Now run a wire from the ign post to the ign wire on the harness. Run the 2 red wires on the harness to the starter battery post. 1 ground by the ECU 1 behind the head. That should be everything you need

For the under dash wire harness could I tap in to my stock harness or whatever it goes to? Or is there a module/box I need to get to be able to connect them? Also how do I get power to my ignition switch? Is it the red loose wire that came close to the relays? I have seen a couple of videos but found yours more informative. Thank you

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

It depends on what car your using. This harness doesn't need to connect to your ignition switch. It just needs a power wire that's on when cranking. Your ignition switch should already be wired or correctly before installing this harness

No you don't want it hooked up to battery you want it to be ignition. If you hook it up to battery it won't turn off with the key

[@andrewbryan4935]

Great information here thanks. I’m trying to tie in the park neutral safety switch that came on the transmission. I managed to find wiring diagrams however there is one connection I’m not sure about. It’s the park/neutral position. One of the wires goes to the starter relay. The other goes to the power train interface module (PIM). The PIM in turn has a wire to pin 58 on the C1 connector of the ECU. Have you had any experience with this. What exactly is the PIM as I don’t have it. Do I need it to make the park neutral safety switch work?

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

I have not messed with this, so let me look into it, I've usually just tuned the trans to park/neutral so it doesn't care about the neutral safety but I will see which wire is needed for you

Is it still working? Im at the point you were at I want to make sure it’s gonna last lol

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

@@isiahmoore988 I sold that truck but I've been using these harnesses since. I haven't had much issues. Just make sure you scan for all data afterward, for example make sure your oxygen sensors work, make sure your maf is showing voltage etc

[@isiahmoore988]

@ thank you I appreciate it greatly!

Thanks for the great video Jovani, I have the China CNCH-3250 harness for my LQ4 swap and it works 100%, but there's something that I can't wrap my head around. Everyone mentions connecting both positive lugs onto the + starter terminal. My harness came with a large and small ring lug in the lead that goes to the starter, so I connected the large ring to the starter positive (batt+) and the smaller ring to starter solenoid trigger. That small ring is wired directly to the starter relay in the CNCH fusebox that came with the harness (I traced it back), so it makes sense that you are supposed to connect your old starter wire from your key to that relay, and then that triggers the starter, or am I missing something here?

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

I think typically in older vehicles there is a wire going from the key switch directly to the starter. I can't remember now but I believe both should go to the positive side of the starter. That one going to the solenoid would only get power when it's cranking. But maybe they changed the wiring on it. I've heard some of the newer ones just don't work so it could be a manufacturing thing

Bro my ebay harness came with a weird injector plug what do I need?

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

Check out the wiring harness guide on my blog to compare pictures to figure out which one you need. Jovanidantegriego.com/blog

[@Romi.Frentescu]

Thank you so much. I have stock delphi injectors on my gen3 truck engine and my harness would not plug in I was stuck. Lol

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

I think the adapter I have on that same site will work

[@Romi.Frentescu]

I ordered it. My alternator plug had only 1 wire pinned and the other wire just hangs free any idea they make them like this?

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

@@Romi.Frentescu ehh it's just cheap Chinese stuff. As long as you can get it going it's worth the money. If you can I reccomend returning it and getting one from lsxspecialties

What’s your website and what’s your location, looking to do a swap

would you recommend it?

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

If you want a super solid harness custom made hit up LSX specialties and let him know I sent you

gracias por los tips, aca en mexico estamos jodidos de informacion

De nada compa. Gracias por ver

[@flackoscustoms5920]

Hey guys I’m having an issue where the injectors are getting 6v to the injectors has anyone had this issue

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

Check your grounds

[@flackoscustoms5920]

I went back and cleaned both ground locations

[@flackoscustoms5920]

Still nothing

[@jakehinojosa8761]

My transmission isn’t shifting into 3 and 4, is there any wires in the bundle of wires that run to trans that need power?

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

There are power wires in that trans plug, but not sure which ones and they should be powered through the harness, pink wires are usually 12v switched and orange is usually 12v constant

My eBay harness didn’t come with the oil pressure sensor or the evap sensor, what can I do?

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

You don't use those on a swap. Or at least most people don't. Evap gets deleted usually. Also do you mean oil level sensor? The one on the oil pan?

[@johnsepulveda650]

@@JovaniDanteGriego thanks for the reply! Good to know, and about the oil pressure sensor it’s behind the intake manifold. The oil level sensor on the pan didn’t come with the kit either, I’m guessing it’s also not needed?

[@JovaniDanteGriego]

@@johnsepulveda650 yea I don't remember if mine had a oil pressure sensor. Any sensor can be easily added though, just buy the ECU pins and the right gauge wire, and run it to the appropriate pins on the ECU
