Someone on here does the lvl 3 harness I'll find the thread

[aussie4life11]

and also where does the trip computer controls plug into? the old speed alert connector or a new one off the lvl3 wiring harnes?

You can change the whole dash loom (so much more work and parts needed), you can wiring in the 2 new plugs (if you have a level 3 loom) or you can buy a patch loom.

Contact 88greenvn he will know

[aussie4life11]

ok. so basically you take the 2 connectors off the lvl 3 harness and connect each wire to the same color one on the lvl 2 harness. am i right?

[aussie4life11]

so 10 connections including the ecm one. thats easier than i thought

[aussie4life11]

@seq4x4, looking at that diagram is that looking from the front or the bcak? and is connector 1 ont the left or the right?

[Jxw]

undo the fuse cover panel under the steering wheel and look up to the right side roughly inline with the cluster, is the white connector there and not in use? you may be one of the lucky ones and not have to wire anything up

[aussie4life11]

nope not there and there is only the 3 hazard/rear window/ ac harnesses + the overspeed alert harness. damn it

He who asks a question is a fool for five minutes, he who does not ask the question is a fool for life.

[aussie4life11]

yea well i probably wouldnt have even thought to check lol. btw, i had an idea. i can use the dash harness off of the wrecker i go out the back to wire up and then without removing the original one from my car i can test if it works outa the car. lol am i a genius or wat? pmsl

[seq4x4]

When the harness is still in the dash, from the Left it goes 1 2 3.

ok. so basically you take the 2 connectors off the lvl 3 harness and connect each wire to the same color one on the lvl 2 harness. am i right?

yep thats it along with one long yellow/black wire with a lug that goes across the dash into a spare space in a connector yb62 near the ecm .

[aussie4life11]

which connector cos i got your diagram from tripin and i think the other wire is ment to go to the harness in the ecu according to that. lol

[aussie4life11]

my bad. just looked at it again. i was wrong
which is connecter yb62? is it labeled?

[seq4x4]

Its the yellow and black wire at the ECU. From memory theres only one..
