harness/ecu swapping

[Supra_Villan]

I have two engine harnesses/ecu's. Both are from 89 turbos, one early 89, one late 89, one auto, one manual. MY car is a 5 speed, and i currently have the factory wiring/ecu in it. The wiring harness i got from the automatic car is in nicer shape, and i was wondering, can i run the auto harness in my 5-speed car without any modification? If so what modification is necessary? If i cant do this, could i run the auto ecu along with said wiring harness on my 5-speed car?

Yes you can. Jump the NSS (netral safety switch) and you will be ok....

Elaborate please? Location(s)? Jump as in....bypass? Sorry, i just want to be sure. But thanks for the reply!

Do a search here for specifics.....but since you do not have an auto shifter that plugs into the harnes, you will need to jumper that connector to get the car to start/run. You have to make the computer think that the car is in Neutral/Park.

BTW the connector will be on the driver side and running along the harness for the abs connector.

Just don't expect the cruise control to work...

Cruise has long been removed. But thanks!

So the connector is on the passenger's side then? because if i recall correctly, all the abs jazz is on the passenger side. So the plug's location is going to be by the ecu and whatnot correct? How many pins is it? Willl not having a transmission ecu to respond with affect anything?

No the wires are on the driver side with the ABS plug on the tranny.

oh ok. so the neutral safety switch is on the manual trans not the harness?
