TCC BRAKE SWITCH INSTALL

[@85_gbody_ss90]

And I think that other connector you were wondering about might be for the cruise control.

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Thanks bro and yes thats exactly what it was

[@franciskovaldovinos2409]

Shouldn’t that be switch power going to tcc? Brake circuit is hot with battery.

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

You can do it either way

[@joshuacaffrey9074]

Thanks for the video bro

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Ur welcome

[@TheDominque12]

On your wire harness it’s a wire that for the speedometer where do u hook that up to

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

If you have an aftermarket speedo that’s your signal wire from the ecu to tell the speedometer how fast you are going it uses the speed sensor from the transmission

[@lontariusaustin1766]

Appreciate it ... best ls swap videos

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Thanks💯💯💪🏾

[@eduardomontanez4661]

I thought the tcc switch requires 12v key not constant 12v ?

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Either way will work ecu looks for constant 12 volt input you already have it there just easier to do it all right there

[@rty8714]

Definitely needed this

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Glad it helped thanks for watching

[@49ersfan63]

Can I run a constant power wire from the cruise control prong straight my fuse box outlet with contestant 12 volt?

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Yes you can all the computer wants to see is a constant 12volts until you hit the brakes

[@richardeddings7259]

How do you run your neutral safety switch? Do I need one for my transmission?

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

No you don’t need a neutral safety switch you can if you want but it’s not necessary

[@valleharley71]

Thanks

[@Berryhill42]

What about the yellow wire labeled brake signal from the harness. By you jumping that wire does that make the yellow wire obsolete?

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Yeah I believe that wire was for something else on the original vehicle don’t need it for a swap

[@Berryhill42]

After looking through the comments I see where another subscriber said he found out that the yellow wire coming from the dbw harness has to be tied in with the white wire just like you jumped the red to the orange. But I appreciate you getting back to me so quickly. Keep the in-depth videos coming great job...

[@MRRANDOM1]

Great video Thanks for sharing!!

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Thanks for watching!!

[@darenmartin9692]

Where did you hook your brake signal wire from your standalone harness to ?

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

That wire goes back on the switch

[@ikemolinar2677]

I'm using factory plugin off 200 4r , purple and white wire , would the white be ran as 12v switched?

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

I’m not sure on the 200r but I would think it would be similar

[@Binsberry82]

Where does the yellow (brake signal into pcm to verify brakes are functioning and allow DBW throttle) go. I know where the purple wire goes

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Let me check the wiring diagram and get back I would think that it would get 12 volts when the brake light is on

[@Binsberry82]

@@DIYWithTheRichardsons i found out, it goes to the front prong(white) on the first switch. Just like you tapped into the orange. My harness had 2 tcc brake wires. A purple and yellow cause its DBW

[@Binsberry82]

@@DIYWithTheRichardsons thanks man, your video helped me get in the right direction

[@claytonhaske]

@@Binsberry82 did you ever find out where the orange park/neutral signal wire goes? It grounds in park/neutral.

[@claytonhaske]

@@DIYWithTheRichardsons did you ever find where the orange wire goes? I have the same cnch harness, and can't figure it out, no big deal as it's only an optional wire to hook up.

[@michaelperry7261]

Is it necessary? I’m doing a Ls swap. 85 k20 with 5.3 backed behind a 4L60.

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Yes it’s necessary !!

thank you sir helped a lot

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

You are welcome thanks for watching

[@drillsgt24]

Hey brother I have old school switch only 2 wires ...constant 12 and pressed brake makes the brake lights come On ...can I run the tcc wire the brake side or do I run it to the constant 12 volt side?

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

So in order for it to work it needs constant 12 volts until you press the brakes you need a newer style brake switch like the one in the video

[@jeromepeterson4043]

The other wire would be cruise control disconnect, I think???

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Thanks I'm going to look into it!!

[@Bball128]

Did you have to hook up the park neutral safety signal

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

No it's already hooked up from the factory

[@Bball128]

@@DIYWithTheRichardsons so you didn't have to touch it for ls swap

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

No sir your vehicle should already have that switch hooked up from your old engine and transmission I believe it is connected to your gear shifter and it kill ignition power if the gear is not in park or neutral

Look on lt1 swap.com for wiring

[@enriqueramirez1936]

Great video man i have a question on my 82 only have a 2 wire so i have to buy the one that have 4 wires right

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Yes because you still need to use those original two wires

[@gamefadayz4121]

Put some heat shrink over them spade connecters

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Thanks for the advice but if you cut your wire the right length there is no need for heat shrink

[@Jakesteinwinder]

By chance you have diagram for the random wires out the harness for gauges ?

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Go to LT1 swap.com you can download a wiring diagram just match the color ECU you have (blue red) (blue green)

[@reapen2481]

can i use the original brake switch

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Yes you can

[@kyore789]

Does every swap need this switch installed? I have 98 Cheyenne, I never heard of it needing to be done

98 obs came with overdrive 4 speed transmission so you already had the switch older three speed vehicles doing a swap need to do this

Tell me what it's doing?

[@45CHI]

I'm getting no brake lights when I completed the wiring....I even ran the power to switch....using a 97 Camaro brake switch...I may need to use a different switch

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

@@45CHI your factory switch should work are your brake light staying on or no lights at all??

[@45CHI]

No lights at all...but yes the factory switch works

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

Ok first thing to do is find the two wires that goes to your brake with the wires not hooked up to the switch your brake lights should stay on is it doing that?

[@joshmistyshirah4565]

Do you slice into pin 33 or do you disconnect it from the pcm to be able to do this?

[@DIYWithTheRichardsons]

The wire from pin 33 needs to hook directly to the switch , it has to have 12v constantly until you hit the brakes, so when you press the brakes you lose 12v and the ECU knows to unlock the converter

[@joshmistyshirah4565]

Thank you very much great video keep it up

[@DJSKID808]

Anytime bro!!

[@chrisrevuelta7855]

so does the purple wire put on on the last brake prong just get spliced into pin 33 on the blue connector? i may be over complicating thing for myself

Yes find your TCC brake from your wire harness and place it there

[@alejandrogarza7916]

You can’t tap into stock 12v with tcc

Ok well explain how it works?? Tell me what is the ecu is looking for??
