Default Cosworth ECU / loom plug - Pin identification?

30 odd pins on the ECU connecting it to the loom

does anyone have a breakdown for what they are all for?

i have a few from the SECS manual but thats it

cheers

It is NOT a good idea to rely on wiring colours - Be warned

Does anyone know who sells the ecu plugs and pins and the shielded cable?

I've got an L8 diagram if you need it, pm me.

RichardPON,
Most of the test values refer to a standard car with standard map sensor and injectors.

Good info otherwise !

I will write out a test check list for you but you will need a multimeter
with resistance and voltage measurement.
Will take me about 15 minutes to write out ..... OK ?

that would be superb and much appreciated.

basically last thing i saw was the secs monitor flicker off when i pulled up, then the engine wouldnt restart and the sec monitor was blank, not even lit up BUT i had ignition and fuel pump priming



down to halfords I go to get said meter !

BASIC FAULT FINDING GUIDE FOR COSSIE ECUS

NOTES:
Some of these results can be affected by an alarm system or imobilizer.
I have assumed the car has a 2.5 bar/3.0 bar map sensor.
If SECS monitor is fitted, unplug it !
(A faulty monitor or incorrectly fitted can cause engine not to run)

1) Ensure ignition is OFF.

2) Remove rear of ecu plug cover and insert plug back into ecu.

3) Turn ignition back on (do not start engine)

4) MAIN POWER CHECK: Check for DC voltage of at least 11.5 volts between ecu pins 19 and 20.

5) REFERENCE CHECK: Check for DC voltage of around 4.8 to 5.2 volts between pins 11 and 30.

6) MAP SENSOR CHECK: Check for DC voltage of around 1.8 to 2.5 volts between pins 11 and 15.

7) 4x4 THROTTLE CLOSED: Check for DC voltage less than 0.5 volts between pins 11 and 17.
2WD: Check for DC voltage greater than 4.5 volts between pins 11 and 17.

8) 4x4: THROTTLE FULLY OPEN: Check for DC voltage greater than 4.5 volts between pins 11 and 17.
2WD: check for DC voltage less than 0.5 volts between pins 11 and 17.

9) Turn ignition off, unlpug ecu, turn ignition back on (dont forget imobilizer if fitted)

10) CRANK SENSOR: Check resistance between pins 3 and 4 between 300 and 1200 ohms.

11) CRANK SENSOR: Check AC voltage on pins 3 and 4 while cranking engine.
Should be at least 2 volts.

11) PHASE SENSOR: Check resistance between pins 5 and 23 between 300 and 1200 ohms.

12) PHASE SENSOR: Check AC voltage on pins 5 and 23 while cranking engine.
Should be at least 1.5 - 2 volts.

12) INJECTOR: Check resistance from pins 18 to 20 should be 2 to 5 ohms.

13) INJECTOR: Check resistance from pins 35 to 20 should be 2 to 5 ohms.

14) INJECTOR: Check resistance from pins 33 to 20 should be 2 to 5 ohms.

15) INJECTOR: Check resistance from pins 32 to 20 should be 2 to 5 ohms.

NOTE: INJECTOR TESTS MAY NEED MAIN RELAY ENERGISED ON L1 and L6 ecus (link pins 1 and 10 first)

16) IGNITION TRIGGER: Read voltage between pins 24 and 25, should be at least 4.5 volts.

17) IGNITION TEST: BEWARE DANGEROUS VOLTAGES ON PLUG/COIL LEADS.
Quickly link pins 24 and 25 on and off this will FIRE the ignition coil.
Rotate dizzi by moving car in gear to point rotor arm at one plug lead
and remove spark plug (earthing it on chassis or engine) to see spark.
(Dont touch it or you will fry)
Try for each plug in turn.
Or remove king lead at dizzi and place end within 1 centimetre of earth
to see a big spark.

18) Place a temporary wire link from pin 1 to pin 10. (energises ecu power relay)
You should hear a click.

19) Quickly link pins 19 to 28 to test fuel pump runs.

20) COOLANT TEMP: Check resistance pins 29 and 11 for 800 ohms to 5000 ohms (depends on temp)

21) CHARGE TEMP: Check resistance pins 31 and 11 for 800 ohms to 5000 ohms (depends on temp)

These are only basic tests but will find 99% of faults

L1/L6 ecu is the same pretty much. (throttle tests swapped/voltages reversed)

The 2.5 bar sensor will show a slightly higher voltage over a 3 bar.

lovely Si, thanks mate

i dont suppose you could shed any light on how the fuel pump priming system works.

the way mine is, on ignition it primes constantly. I believe it should prime for a few seconds and then switch off anything i can check?

Fuel pump relay maybe?

The relay may be being triggered by the ignition live and sticking on.....?

Excellently presented Info Simon, one for tech essay archives that one

To Clarify:
L1 and 6 both use PF01 TPS.

DaveEscos, Un plug the ecu and turn the ignition on,
If the pump runs the the relay has been wired to run permanently or
the relay is jammed.
However, If the pump is running continuously, this WILL NOT stop the car from starting !!!!!!

Some chips dont drive the fuel pump relay output properly as this is used for
other features like ALS etc....
(PECTEL/AHMED chips mainly)
In these situations, the pump is rewired to run continuously.

If however, the pump is wired correctly and working properly,
if it runs continously when the ecu is plugged in only,
then I suspect the ECU and/or chip has failed

simon, i have an update...


pin 20 is only getting 8v!

i fed a feed direct from the battery to the pin, voltage 12.18v started the car and

she burst in to life


so that narrows it down to that cheers all

now... why is the ECU feed low on voltage?

where does it feed to?

its a blue cable with a yellow stripe


RE: the pump.. will it hurt it to run continuoulsy on the ignition? obvioulsy i wont be leaving it on ign for any length of time

The pump is ok to run continuosly.

The ECU feed comes from the fuse/relay box but I dont have info to hand.

Could be either the relay itself OR the fuse box as this is a common fault !!!

The fuse box can be repaired but is a pain to remove and get apart !

Glad you found it !!!

will the wire for pin 20 be the same colour all the way through to the fusebox?
