Dponce Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I was working on my z yesterday and i replaced the battery cables. Well i rushed it(stupid of me) and mixed the 2 wires that were hooked to the battery cables and i am trying to figure out how exactly its supposed to go. The car seems to be having trouble cranking over now, but when it does it just cranks. It has spark, and fuel. I really need some help on this problem because i need to get the car going before i get it painted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZed Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Add more details - color, size, wire origination and termination, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewZed Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 One is a ground wire and should be connected to the negative terminal. The other is the power wire to your fuel injection harness. It should also have a fusible link in-line, and is connected to the positive terminal. If you didn't disconnect the fusible link(s) then the one with the links would be the one for the positive terminal. Some Zs have two green fusible links and some only have one. You forgot to mention the year of the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
