Hey all, I'm stripping out my vt to race car spec. I bought a vt 5ltr chip from commodoregear off ebay that has vats removed. I have stripped out all the unnecessary wiring and installed the chip.
I have relocated the battery to the boot and wired up the starter and alternator correctly back to the original engine bay fuse box.
I have installed an igntion switch and push button stater The ignition switch is connected to the pink/black wire which powers the engine control relay and the fuel pump. It also powers the push button starter. The push button starter is connected to the red/white wire to the start relay When I turn on the ignition the fuel pump primes for a second then turns off, I push the start button and nothing happens although the wire is pushing 12.5volts to start relay.
So I tried removing the start relay and bridged the main wires and the engine started but won't keep running I tested spark and there is plenty the and continues to spark as the engine is turned over so that is working fine. I then put a test light across and injector plug and nothing
So my questions are
1. Could the chip be faulty or not have vats removed as the engine doesn't continue to run?
2. It seems like the pcm isn't grounding the start relay (grey wire to pcm feom relay)
3. Am I missing a wire somewhere to ground the start relay????
Pics are of the pcm harness plugs showing wires that were discarded and of ignition wire (pink/black) and start wire (red/white)
Please help
