2WD cossie loom. In the process of re-wiring my car and sorting this bloody shite loom out! Have afew questions.

Firstly there is a blue wire with a yellow tracer going to one relay and a blue wire with a green tracer going to the other. But they have been swtiched around? Is this right?



On the yellow sub loom which has the Idle control, Cam Phase and CPS there is an unused Brown plug? DO I need this?
Theres a few brown/green and brown/white wires which have been cut off and dont go anywhere?



The injectors are all joinded together like so? not sure of this is normal?



Finally some soldered connections! albeit badly. But theres a red/black wire and a brown/yellow wire cut off?



any advise?

To start with, that isn't a 2wd loom, but :

blue/yellow, blue/green wires - no they shouldn't have been switched

brown plug - air charge temp sensor if the wires go to ECU pins 11 and 31 - required

brown/green, brown/white wires - I don't know 100%, but these colours are correct for the oil pressure switch (green trace) and the oil temp gauge (white trace). If so, the wires should go to the connector to the car loom

injector reds joined - correct (the injectors share a common 12V feed, and the individual earths are switched through the ECU)

soldered connections - ignition coil wires (someone has fitted a "group A" coil and cut off the original connectors)

red/black, brown/yellow wires - if these go to ECU pin 16 and one of the relays (terminal 87), then they are the original amal valve wires, but the colours are correct if they are the ISCV wires (to ECU pin 34 and one of the relays terminal 87)

So it's a 4WD loom like I thought? Or off an Alfa or similar?

Relay wires need switching then.

I`ll have to check the brown plug to see where it traces back to on the ECU then as I have another brown plug that I was using on the Charge Air sensor. Is the Charge Air Temp sensor on that loom as the other brown plug I have is on the same loom as the Water Temp sensor and TPS which would make sense to be some sort of temp.

Car is running a group A coil, correct. I just wasn`t sure if the red/black and brown/yellow were to do with the coil.

The Idle valve is correct and presnt as far as I`m aware so could well be amal valve as mine currently isn`t running one.

Cheers for the advice I`ll have to check the pins.

You might be better off with a new loom. Look like a proper dogs dinner on that.

The Cam Phase sensor has been switched as it was probably off a car that used a Zetec Phase sensor that read off a disc attached to the Cam pulley (you need to swap the polarity round if you are using a Zetec Cam sensor).

Good luck!
