Connection Point and Color

Description

Additional Information

1 Red

12v input power

Tie into the ignition circuit coming from the chassis to power up the ECU/Engine fusebox. Make sure this has power while the start is cranking

2 Yellow

Starter Trigger

Tie this into the chassis where the key or switch triggers the starter (small tab on the back, not the battery). This ECU senses when the car is trying to crank so it can adjust and start the engine.


Power Cables

There will be a circuit breaker that has marked on it “AUX” and “BATT”.

BATT

For the battery side, you’ll run a cable (not included) from the battery-positive post to the BATT side on the circuit breaker.

AUX

Everything else will be connected to the AUX side of the post. This includes the alternator cable supplied with the kit and the cable from the fusebox. If you have additional battery power leads, you could connect them at that point as well.


Additional Information

Leave the Test Mode Connectors unplugged. More about those can be found in the link below.

Initialization Connector - Depending on the software you use to tune the ECU, it may ask that you plug in the test mode connectors. We have already done this by running the wires directly from the ECU to the OBD2, so just click yes to that prompt and move forward.
