Link Wire- in

Postby Vodka » Wed Aug 17, 2005 9:30 pm

My civic has a LINK computer. So far we have discovered several unconnected wires (including a loose capacitor in the engine bay) from the shite job that the turbo shop did. (see http://forums.toyspeed.org.nz/viewtopic.php?t=35574 )

What Ajz, burning angel, and I would like to know is where this capacitor is supposed to go? The wiring manual for the link does state where on the coil it is supposed to wire into, its just finding it thats all. Life would be much easier if turboshop hadn't left the original wiring loom for the old engine in there :|

We suspect the reason my car lags (and slightly splutters) through gear changes (when changing fast) is because of these wires and/or capacitor that were found unattached just below the dizzy

We are also trying to work out why the LINK igniter when attached to the body of the car is grounding and not allowing the car to start. we have temporarily (with cable ties) attached it to the back of the intake pipe just before the pod (got rangi?). This seems to allow the car to start, whereas if it touching metal at all it will not.

Confused yet?

Any ideas or comments on making the link operate correctly?

Maybe take it back to The Turbo Shop?

Can't be bothered lol. we would rather have the challenge of doing it ourselves (i've got the money to take it back there if I have to, but trying to avoid it as much as possible).

Might sound dumb, but how are you supposed to learn things without doing them yourself? :P
