Calvin Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 I have had the battery on my car disconnected for about a month or so doing an engine swap, and while I had the engine torn apart, I figured what the heck, and put in one of my DICs while I was at it. Tonight I hooked up the battery to crank the engine over and see if the starter was shimmed right, and the damned interior lights wouldn't shut off! I wired up the DIC by using the whole pigtail from the donor, all the way up to the C200 or whatever its called under the passenger side dash, so I didn't splice anything fishy.... WTF, does this happen a lot? Kurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94CutlassSLCoupe Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 a lot of times there are a few of the same color wire going to that connector. I remember I had a HELL of a time getting my HUD to giveout speed because there were TWO identically colored wires. I would use a pinout and double check EVERYTHING. P.S. I'm glad I'm done with Kettering for the summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin Posted June 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 Well, shit, I just don't get it, The only thing I did was plug an extra connector into the C200. Even if the wires are the same color, I don't see GM getting confused. I am wondering if it is feeding back power through the ground for the DIC or something. Is there like an extra diode or something for the high option level cars? I am glad to be done for the term too, but it appears that I will be missing deans list AGAIN this term by a few points. DAMMIT! BTW, 3400 is running now, and I have some uh, a lot of, uh tuning to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
