nazar Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Im wiring in my lt1 ecu right now and thats the easy part since its all labeled thanks to the mod work I had done to it. But when i stripped my engine bay i took a bunch of wiring out and cut some that I thought were uneccessary. Now I dont know where to send power to from the battery + I know 1 goes to the starter, 1 to the lt1 ecu, but what about running all the factory Z stuff? Headlights, turnsignals, switches, etc...I dont know where the factory power wire is that went to the battery for power to the fuse box in my dash(71 240z) Any help? I am done wiring in the ecu to the engine, and now working on wiring the leads from the ecu to the pump, the fan and then finally the ignition so that I can start the car from inside with the key. But cant figure out where all the factory datsun stuff gets its power from??? Frustrated I guess i just need to find the wire that feeds power to the fuse box? I assume that distributes power to most of the things I am needing to power up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazar Posted March 9, 2006 Author Share Posted March 9, 2006 i did search and al the diagrams show the harness for all the lights and interior, but nothing shows where it all gets it power from at the battery? I have my starter on my lt1 wired to the battery as well as my ecu, now the ecu needs to be wired to the ignition source and the rest of the car needs power....lol...this may be a simple question but im stumped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartman Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I think the main power for the factory fuse box comes from the Alternator output. I installed an insulated terminal block and have a wire on it from the battery as well as the alternator output. IIRC the datsun wire that provides wire to the fuse box is white with a red stripe (which I connected to the insulated terminal block as well). http://www.madelectrical.com/catalog/cn-1.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
