will be beer baron :O really just after what a translation of what each wire is the stuff isnt that important

:kiss:

The bottom pic: (reading from the top)

White wire:AFM

Blue:Tacho

Green:Speedo

Orange:Fuel infection (trying to liven up a boring day)

Black:Non power

Red:POWER!!

The top pic doesn't really say anything. Just to plug the ECU connector cable into the engine computer wiring, which is what you are trying to do. And not to cut the engine computer's wires. And to check everything lots.

Sorry about the vagueness, it's a bit hard to know what's going on when you don't have the actual gear in front of you. If your not all sorted, then ask a few more questions/post a few more pics.

sorry to bring up an old thread but im about to install one of these, problem is the white wire is actually a double wire, that is split at the plug and goes to 2 different pins, can any one tell me what it says about it at the top of the wiring pic?

473 is about acceptable to me.

what are you on about mate? did I somehow offend you? I thought the sentence was pretty bloody simple. not many foreigners I know, even those that can speak japanese well and read and write kana, know many kanji. I honestly don't know what your problem is. half the time it seems to me you trawl the forum looking for an argument.

my point was this. not too many people, even amongst those studying japanese will know lots of kanji. he posted a thread for help, at that point in my study 2 years ago it was too much for me to read to help him. after one day he grew tired of waiting and bumped the thread. I simply pointed out that there are not huge reserves of people on the forum with the time and skill to read it for him and to just be patient (ie don't bump the thread every day). Not everyone reads the forum every day and for request like this sometimes it may take a few days for someone to respond.

now your japanese may be excellent and you may be a grand high master of kanji too but if you could not understand the simple message above I think perhaps your english comprehension skills are somewhat lacking.

Also consider the fact that this thread is over 18 months old.

sorry mate i wrote that pretty late, it came across a little differently to what i was wanting.

didnt mean to sound like an idiot. I have met a lot of people who are foreign and can read kanji very very well. Those people were all at the school I was in though.

i thought your generalization was about the world in general. not the forum. sorry about that.

you are right in saying on these forums though.

im guessing michael was, back then, in the same position i am in now, just got one and anxious to fit it.

I did pm michael to try and get some help with the remote for this dash and never got a reply so i dont want to hassle him any more.

A++ would read again.

this thread delivers :) even 3 years later.

w0rped did you ever get an answer about the double/white wire? maybe for gtr afms?

And is there are clearer requirement for orange? any injector pulse or something else?

my ecu is not on the instructions so I'm a bit stuck.

sorry I must mean something different. the unit came with a plug and about 7 wires. I don't know which wires I need to tap on the ECU, but the list above clarifies all except 1 - not sure what exactly I need to tap for the fuel?

Hey Duncan are you running the epson ej1 system too?

I see now, i think i did find out what it was for but i cant remember now and have lost all the wiring diagrams

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
