JIM73240Z Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 on the underside of the 83 zx turbo dizzy is the 4 wire plug for the computer. one side has the bump so you can only insert the plug into the dizzy the one way. my question is what is the colors of the wires in each position of the plug? my plug is ok. but the wires are toast and i can not tell what the original colors were from the old harness. jimbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z240 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 you're going to need the factory service manual and wiring diagrams. xenons130.com/reference Download the 82 or 83 and look at the ECCS and or Turbo references... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JIM73240Z Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 i have looked at the wiring diagram and it shows the colors but not the position that they go into the plug or dizzy. ie, top right ect. when looking at the bottom of dizzy with the plug pointed up, jimbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twoeightzero Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I have the same problem in that I can`t identify the wiring of the plug. Do you have a drawing of the bottom of the distributor that shows what wires go to what terminals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZed Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 He hasn't been on for over three years. cgsheen has posted a few times about which wire goes where. Tell people what you're actually working with first though, it's not clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twoeightzero Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Looking at the bottom of the distributor with the socket at the top, there are four male spade connectors numbered 1) top left 2)top right 3) bottom left and 4)bottom right. There are four wires to be connected to these spade connectors, 12V+, Ground, Trigger 1, and Trigger 2. Which wires are connected to which pins I`ll check cgsheen to see if he shows this connection. I noticed that a lot of pictures that were hosted by photobucket are no longer visable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twoeightzero Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Sorry, I`m trying to wire a 280zxt optical distributor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZed Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Pretty sure he just calls out the wire colors. Here's a few, plus the Google search terms. Might be enough in here. https://www.google.com/search?q=site:hybridz.org+cgsheen+280zx+distibutor+wire&ei=3ebBWbDJNNTIjwO8qak4&start=10&sa=N&biw=1230&bih=881 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
