hey lads, doing an rb25 conversion into an s13, using the rb25 loom and ecu, have (well i think i have) all powers and earths wired into the car and ecu, etc... (Couldnt find a wiring table anywhere for it, just have to go by the wiring diagrams for both cars).. Now i have everything working as it should, just no signal coming from the ecu for the coilpacks, have signal leaving the CAS, injectors are clicking, fuel pump relay working, everything else seems to be working as it should, even have a power and earth at the coilpack, just no signal?? anyone got any idea's??

have checked the ecu, have no signal leaving it, just a very small (weak) constant earth...

Another thing i have noticed, if i leave th ign turned on for 5 min's or so the igniter pack get seriously warm, when i checked the power going to it, seems to be coming back though the coil packs to it? maybe this is normal? i dunno...

now, only thing i havent wired up yet are knock sensors? shouldnt have ay affect on the spark? should it?

Any help would be appericated....

Knock sensors have no effect on the workings of the coils.

Coils have power, then feed power to the ignitor, then each ignitor circuit is switched to earth by the ECU.

Yeah, i thought so..

So, why would the ecu not be sending a signal? the signals seem to be coming from the CAS to the ecu..

What did I say? The ECU DOES NOT have an output signal - it switches the ignitor to earth to fire the coil.

Is this question because the coils don't actually fire?

      Unpeeling the Orange

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
