Cuttin Loom Out Of 1.9

[DaveK 0]

ive given up taking the loom out whole from under the dash so....

 

what wires should i be cutting the take the parts off that i dont need since im doing an mi conversion?

 

do i just chop em all off? the loom i have for the mi has the 2 brown plugs on it so those are the ones that go in the dash.

 

Ive noticed there is a relay that was attatched along with the ecu plug (was selotaped to the ecu wires) , does this need to stay with the mi loom?

 

sorry if im confusing people here, im confusing myself aswell

 

cheers lol

The french like to make things hard.

 

if you dont need the loom unplug the two brown plugs and the rest can be cut. you will need the two brown plugs to put into the mi16 loom.

ah is the relay im on about the tachymetric relay? its a black block with 5 or 6 wires in it iirc, which isnt needed?

 

the plugs have already been wired up as it came out a 205

Don't get to cut happy as some of the wiring to the brown plugs on the 205 are still needed.

 

The black seven pin relay next to the ecu is the tachymetric relay on the 205 loom, the wires from this you need are the fuel pump wire (#76) & possibly wire 32A (thin yellow wire) for the ignition switched live that closes the fuel pump relay contact.

 

The dash doesn't need much un-doing to get the ecu plug out, a couple pof 10mm nuts under the scuttle panel & the main one in the centre gives enough movement to pull the loom out complete but the wires need removing from the relay plug first.

 

If the loom you have has already been fitted to a 205 you might be OK but you'll need to make sure before you chop all the old wiring out.
