thanks mate, take a break it sounds like you need it.
i already had pin 6 tagged as injector feed, just tried hardwireing it with the fuel pump but it is still doing the same thing.

sounds like you have power on the pink but not on tghe right pin at the battery meaning the dfi is powered off the pink but the ecu isnt live

its a vr motor and box, and i have transplanted the entire wiring loom from the VR into it ... i figured that would be the easiest way to do it .... i still have to wire up all the dash gauges which will be the biggest challenge but im getting there slowly ....

i will be following this one with keen interest!!

i am modding it in the vn to swap out ready to go into the ek.
i have no power at any of the three pink wires, there are 2 on the big plug and 1 on the adld plug.
can i give it direct power without stuffing anything?
the ecu isnt in the kick panel anymore it is sitting in the eng bay.
cheers shane
