Hey all,

Im trying to install the steering wheel controls and ive connected the 12v wire for the LEDs. The 3 wires that come out the back of the clock spring i have the following questions.

1. To these wires come out behind the stereo to connect to or should i cut them at the clock spring.

2. The sony control plug has red, white& black wires but the clock spring has red, yellow & green. Does it matter what colours i attach to to allow the steering wheels to fuction properly and does anyone have a match up guide for this.

id say as a mass produced car with many options. one loom was made with many connectors for the many options available. cost/time. will be following as i have steering wheel controls that come to plug behind stereo just cant get them to work with my head unit

Ok so think i have worked it all out

Black - Yellow (earth)

Red - Green (imput 2)

White - Red (input 1) green in picture

That looks right from what I recall, as long as your head unit can handle resistive controls and you can teach it what the buttons do you're all good. If not you'll need an Axxess ASWC-1 or PAC SWI etc.. adaptor. I grabbed an ASWC-1 when i was going to drop a single DIN cheapy in but ended up going a different route.

Cheers mate. I saw that the other day but with mine being a double din i may not need that control box. Once i get a break from the long work hours/daddy duties ill know a little more. Ill take alot of photos throughout the process for a quick writeup with double din (sony) for future installs.

Ok. I have found my error. I cut one of the unit control sensors (white) instead of a led earth (pink) as per commsman's write up as my unit did not have this wire. I have recently added in a wire to earth it out. I have tested once i discoverd and corrected the issue and it works with my sony double din without the control box as per last post. So here are some pictures for reference. (No i will not be leaving the wiring like that.... it was to test. 90dbd6e1ddcffd7acd14b1a2945e2464.jpg7334c43d2567627aecd017003b9cbe07.jpgb2b9f4aff0729dac6edda2f24fba0485.jpg5b10fe5874788de19bdaf8ab64a22762.jpg5a7a603ac8a5d88a964862caca7be883.jpg

Good to see you have it figured out

That might be what i need to do with mine. As soon as i would plug connector in back of stereo it would turn off. I have an earth wire just floating about. I really dont want to be pulling all the car apart again done it 5 times since purchase haha

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
