Hi anybody know where these muliplugs connect to on a S2 ERST

 

white one speed sencor for gearbox and other should be for water temp sender at back of inlet

 

Early S2, D or E reg?

I think the white one is for an electric dipstick level. The S2 never came with these, but early spec ones had them on the loom.

 

Its an 89 on a G plate, and I've already connected the water temp sender on the inlet manifold, where abouts its the gearbox speed sensor???

 

I have the same wire hanging loose on my H reg. Trouble is, I've looked for the temp sensor and theres nothing there.

 

The black one as stated is the coolant sensor, and the white one as also stated looks like a speed sensor plug, HOWEVER, MFI RST's dont use a speed sensor, do you have a fuel computer on board? I cant see it being this however as the fuel computer is not part of the main loom.

Tony Turbo: S2's have never come with electronic dipsticks shame they cut a lot of nice features out from the Series 1

 

No I don't have a fuel computer, and does that mean the plug is just a spare if I don't have a speed sensor. I will check the temp sender but I'm sure i've connected that up

 

Can u tell me the wire colours on each of the plugs

 

I have just been out and checked (bloody freezing)

1 plug has a brown/green and a brown

1 plug has a black/yellow a brown/white and a brown

1 plug has a brown/red a blue/yellow and a brown/yellow

I have identified the two wire plug a temp wire (via haynes manual)but can't see where it plugs and as for the other two I've no idea

 

hang on hang on thats 3 plugs now

u windin me up

Is one of the plugs yellow?

 

No wind up mate, when I went out to have a look I found another one and no it isn't yellow thats the abs belt break switch isn't it
Two are as in the photo the other is the same shape and size as the white one in the pic only its black

 

ok

as you said the one is the coolant temp, the white one IS a speed sensor plug and im still researching the black one, i would of said fuel flow sensor but the colours are wrong. Where abouts is the black plug?

Just checking your car is an MFI turbo yeah? Not EFI?

 

its next to the white one up by the heater box and it is MFI not EFI

 

Errrrrrrrrmmmm..............

 

S2's never had the wiring in the looms either............

Other wise there would be a massive spare plug under the dash for the Auxiliary warning control module..............

back at ya

 

wrong

just like mine!!

 

Can you tell me what colour the wires on this plug is?

 

Thank you


Safechav -

 

will have a look the next time i'm at my garage!

 

hang on hang on at least let me give some poor exscuse for being wrong (IF i am ) before u shoot me

 

addiction: that would be good mate

 

So have we decided what mine are or not then???

 

Aldi:

im still researching the other plug now, very wierd colours

Thought it may be the ABS but as youve already said its the yellow one.

I'll keep looking, for the mean time though i dont think they are anything important, that additional coolant one doesnt appear on all the cars for some reason??? Not too sure why, don't worry about it though its a secondary one you still have the primary one.

The important plugs to have connected are the coolant temp, hydro electric pressure actuator, throttle switch, air charge temp, air flap position sensor, and the amal valve (if ur running one), all the rest arent crucial.

 

Thanks for your help I have all those connected up so if the others arn't important I'm not worried. Hopefully should be up and running over the xmas break (kids,missus permitting)

 

Gota keep the boss happy

 

Sorry... we have moved on from that now



Safechav - I would show you on mine, but can't for two reasons;

A) My car isn't at my house

and

2) I don't have them on my loom anymore lol



I wouldn't shoot you really, I have been told to stop by Performance Ford

 

U found out them wire colours yet

 

i'll have a look when i go to my mum's for xmas cos that's where me motor is kept!!

 

My appologies i seem to of misplaced my crystal ball

 

He did say "when I am next at the garage"

 

I think christmas has gone by now hasnt it

 

check this guy out!! like all i have to do is go looking for this for you?!
i have just not had the time to look due having a very busy life! sorry

 

Easy!! was only playing
