does anyone have a harness for an sr that I can use to see if the car would start up...I did a swap and the motor is cranking but doesnt start, I tried changing the starter chip, etc.. and the last thing that i can think of is the harness being messed up during the swap....any help would be good

thanks, Im located in annandale

1sloREX · 04-28-2008, 11:39 AM

there is spark, just a little weak, and def. there is fuel

Phil703 · 04-28-2008, 12:47 PM

Hm.. Double check all connections, Make sure your plugs are good, make sure the wires are good..

annandale, va

elfenguard911 · 05-02-2008, 06:33 AM

ouch thats a 2hr drive for me man sorry i would love to help though. all i can suggest without seeing it would be if its a modded sr harness with the ka terminals then check for any shitty solder jobs and the ENTIRE!!! starting circuit for any bad grounds or anything. i have a bud who recieved a bad maf and computer so check those out aswell.
lemme know how it turns out.good luck

1sloREX · 05-05-2008, 02:13 PM

thanks for the advice...im looking to try out the harness as soon as my finals are over

aNskY · 05-20-2008, 07:11 PM

weak spark on all cyls? i had a similar problem, my ignition outputs from ecu were mixed up. probably not your case but check for any splices

minisilvia · 05-21-2008, 08:04 PM

Did you make sure your cam angle sensor is lined up?

1sloREX · 05-23-2008, 09:02 AM

yea i do line up the cam angle, and as far as the ecu wire splice, im running a power fc and i tried hooking it up to the power fc and the ecu....im probably going to take the car to BT motorsport for them to check it out
