Not sure if this is the right section couldnt see an electrical area,

Wiring up an a/market ecu on rb25 series 2 engine.

I have wired it up as per this picture

White - earth - Black - Ignition switching wire - pink = signal from ecu.

Heres is an rb25 wiring diagram.

When I hook it up as it is the electrical system seems overloaded making me think its wired wrong

Can someone shed some light as ive pulled the loom back out start fresh on it make sure its done correctly.

Thats a series 1 diagram, not a series 2 like your coil packs are. You have the power and ground reversed. Try this diagram instead.

IB - Pink - Trigger from ECU

G - Black - Ground

+ - White - Connect to +12V via the ECCS relay.

These markings are on the coil pack under the plug (remove the plug to see them).

Also, if using an after market ecu use max 1.8ms charge time, 0.4ms discharge time or you will burn out the coil packs.

Thanks for the info I actually was wondering why it would be any different then any other wiring setup I couldnt understand this other diagram I was looking at but that one is a bit more straight forward.

The ecu im using is the ems 8860, Funny you should mention the basemap they have for rb25 has 3.5ms dwell I turned it down to 1.9ms so that should be sweet.

Thanks for the quick reply I should have it firing after cleaning up the loom.

    • 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.
