1.9 8v Engine Loom Query

[td_dan 7]

Hi iv received a loom today for my 1.9 8v and im just wandering does it come in 2 parts as iv got the ecu plugs and then right across into the injectors and the coil BUIT i dont seem to have the starter solenoid and sensor wiring.

 

Does it come in two parts? Sorri if this is a very silly question but im just wandering.

The starter, alternator and sensor wiring runs through a brown multiplug that sits near the top of the gearbox - sounds like you're missing the part that plugs into that, which has all the spade connectors on the end that connect to the sensors, starter etc.

i thought as much thanks mate.

To be honest, it's far from the end of the world - I tend to remove that section and the brown multiplug anyway and run new wire to all the sensors/starter/alternator as the multiplug is almost always excessively corroded and causes no end of issues - most notably, a prime cause of "clicky starter syndrome"

oh rite im sure i read a thread about that while doing hours of searching lol. So wot do you suggest? just cut of the brown plug and solder the correspondiong wires as per the thread (if i can find it again) lol

Basically, yes - although you'll likely have to go back 6-12" from the multiplug to find clean uncorroded wire (ie bright shiny copper, rather than dull brown or green corroded wire that won't take solder and won't give a good connection to crimped connectors)
