bougt a used SAFC.. was wiring it in today. was wondering if someone had a diagram for 87-88 safc install?. i went on apexi's site.. they had the diagram, but i wanted something with a generic illustration? i searched on here only found a hand drawing. also, if the power was hooked up, and the 2 ground wires are hooked up, should the afc turn on with the car? or do all the wires have to be hooked up?
thanks for the help.

There is a detailed wiring diagram in my sig for +89 but you can match the signal names.

I don't know what 'both brown wires' you're talking about.

Yes, you can get it to power up without being installed:
+12V = Red
Gnd = Black, Brown

I've even done it with a 9v battery on a safr and a neo.

Make sure you have the grounds hooked up the right way...

Also, double check you have the right wires spliced.

I have been wondering:

I already have an AVCR wired in. Can I just add in the wires into where I spliced in the AVCR wiring, or will I need to splice and dice at a different section/length?
