got my engine in finaly and almost everything else just duno where the hell these wires go???? can any 1 please help me!?

1. these are round by the gear box


2. these ended up next to coil


and keep blowin a 15 amp fuse 2nd fuse from bottom right

 

ohh and my starter motor as well lol

 

hehe so have you actually connected anything yet ?

 

yes, u wouldnt think it tho would ya?

 

Sorry mate I have no idea. I labelled everything up when I changed the engine on my Pulsar. Saying that though when I came to plugging everything in I noticed that all the connectors were different and would only fit in 1 hole

Good luck though

 

new engine new loom.. lol will get it sorted soon tho im startin to slowly work it out now

 

up again, any help?

 

Shame its an rst or i might have known
The red and black one in your top pic is deffo the fuel pump live if that helps

 

1 pump
2 blue wire goes to alternator wiring, brown wire goes to water temp sensor on head
3 not too sure
4 not too sure
5 Spare, doesnt go to anything
6 Wiper motor

 

nice 1 spadge ur the 3rd to claify that for me so if the red and black is live the other is the negative?

Ryan - nice 1 mate i better get me some solder and electrical tape out

 

can the fuel pump be located in the boot at all i.e wheel well or on wing? as i dnt have the bracket for it to go under car

 

sure, if you want a boot full of petrol when it leaks

plus extending all the hoses etc? better just getting a bracket really

 

why didnt i think of the leakin petrol?

where can i get the bracket from? it would be the one that the pump bolts on to if that makes sence?

 

up up up

 

That will teach you not to label everything when you take it apart

No.3 is for the coil, can't recall which ones + or - though

 

Makesure u got the engine earths done proper too or u uld end up with a week spark or no spark at all is it an XR3I engine?

 

dave - yes it is an xr3i engine, where are the grounds as i only found 1

Paul - i didnt take it out, bought it as it is so

any 1 got a picture of the fuel pump under the car so i know exactly where to put it? i need to get a bracket as well i think to mount the pump to?

thanks Benn

 

theirs one on the gearbox, goes to somewhere i cant remember
one on the rear engine lift eye, bolts or screws to inner wing, i got it on the rocker cover to header tank bolt, works fine so far, other earth is for the starter, thats it afaik.

pump mounts under the car on a bracket that the pump sits in the middle of, 2 or 3 bolts holding the pump onto it im sure? and it bolts to the spare wheel well. not sure what way it goes round, but i know a hose comes out it and goes back on itself to the right fi ure looking at it from behind, probable the inlet for the pump!

 

nice 1 dave, will gimme summin to do on the weekend then.. lol!

any 1 got a pict of there fuel pump?

 

1 pump - SORTED
2 blue wire goes to alternator wiring, brown wire goes to water temp sensor on head - WAT ABOUT BLACK/RED WIRE?
3 not too sure - IDEAS?
4 not too sure - IDEAS?
5 Spare, doesnt go to anything - NICE
6 Wiper motor IS ONE OF THEM A GROUND?

got no power either... eeeekkk
So theres my little update

 

ok

some repeated;

1 black redtrace +ve pump, thick brown earth
2 Does the black red wire not go to starter?? cranking live?
3 TBH the one in your hand doesnt look like the coil -ve???? I looks more like a sensor wire, Oil pressur on back of block maybe? But I'm pretty sure the one with 2 blue wires, which in someway will be linked to that little box thing which is a suppressor.... That red bullet connector thing, has the wire comoing out that been cut? That could be the coil -ve?? and has been repaired at some stage.... You cant get enm the wrong way round, the coil terminals are different sizes
4... even though the brown and red wire looks factory, I dont recall ANY ford loom wires which are bonded together like that except speaker wire?? I would trace thenm backwards, bet they are for some spots which were added to loom at some stage, in fact, get a test light put main ban on see if goes live...
5. Defo unused
6 will be for your wiper motor and heater blower, you wil need the original plugs, get your old loom out for these, the wire colours should be exactly the same, and branch off the loom in the same place, so make sure you dont cut your old loom too short..... and YES one if not 2 will be earths which screw to the wiper bracket on the bulkhead...

When you say you have no power what do you mean exactly??

And your original earth straps will be in the same place as the XR items...

If you cet some more varied pics, mnay be able to help a little better mate..

 

actually maybe 4, was an overide switch for the fan??? Again added at later date

 

cheers for that matey the red/black for the starter motor ill have another look at..
got a few more wires on there half the wiper motor done need to do a few other wires.

when i say i have no power i mean no power at all.. turn the key no dash lights no indecators no lights nothing which is pretty worrying..

the earth straps are from a 1.3 but gotthem all sorted as well now i think...

thanks for all the help im getting

 

Cant help at all but hurry up and get it done

 

Pic 5 could be for the horn, does that work? also could be part of alarm wiring for when the bonnet is opened. The earth from the gearbox can just be bolted anywhere on inner wing, like i did

 

summer - i am tryin hun

FAST AS FORD - the horn is sorted but aint got the actual horn on the steerin wheel wired up so dont know if that works, the gearbox ground is already done as well

 

no.3 what your holding goes on in let manifold if i remember right on the throtle

 

I'll believe ya Until then uve got a couple of private taxi's right?

 

turbo cab cheers mate thats where i thought it went

gota get the blue on to the alternator today..

getting the dash out and mates comin round with a metre to find out wats goin on.

fanks again to everybody.
and a big up to TILLIO for sortin me the alternator wiring!

 

summer, course i have lol

 

ok now got power had sum dodgey frayed cables goin to the battery terminals! just gota sort the rest out now, got a relay goin mad and blew a 15amp fuse sum how!

 

[quote="Damo V"]ok


2 Does the black red wire not go to starter?? cranking live?
it reaches just the connect seems lose??

3 TBH the one in your hand doesnt look like the coil -ve???? I looks more like a sensor wire, Oil pressur on back of block maybe?

THE ONE IN HAND WITH TAPE ON IS STILL LOST?

The frayed cables, are probably the fused lives for the fuse box mate, they are designed to burn out if there is a problem, rather than blow loadsa fuses and or ignite...


The black red wire im prety sure is starter in some way...,

What is the little symbol on fuse box cover, for the fuse and relays which are playing up?

 

the frayed cable when compared with old loom really didnt look healthy so they was fixed and replaced,

the black and red wire id agree with u, reckon i need a new connector on it...?

it is definatly fuse 17, supose to be 10amp had a 15 in there that blew.
the symbol has a light symbol with wat looks like a wiper on there

 

Brake light symbol prob......

 

would it blow cause of a bad earth or wat guna have to chase it bk but duno what im lookin for?

damo fanks for all ur help mate it is appreciated

 

broken wire touching metal, dodgy switch, on brake pedal, dodgy lamp unit, causing short.... whatever it is,..... its bad news mate, you need to confirm whast the circuit is thjough, before you trace something it isnt if you know what i mean....

 

yup think i know wat u mean, guna get the haynes out and get a meter of a mate tomoz

 

Oh and if I was you, while you have all these lecky issues, leave the battery permanently disconnected whilst you are not with the car.....

 

will do, found out that the brake light connection wasnt pluged together behind the dash

so no blown fuse no more

pluged the fuel pump up as well now when i turn the lights on the fuel pump primes

one thing after a bloody nother with this car
