Hi all, I just put together a car I bought in parts and I'm sure there are many issues to go through on it, but the first one is after I connected all the cables and put the key in and turn it, I get all the lights coming up which was good. Bad things i when I turn it to start it goes dead, all lights go dark ?? could this be the immobilizer or something like that ??
I bought parts from everywhere and had main harness and key from on old 350z i trashed, ECU from another places and ring around steering column with turn signal and all from the car. So I guess that is the problem, but I have no experience with this, so please help me.

 

sounds like a bad connection at the battery - check those and if not, check your ground connection. Easy way to find it is to turn on the lights and start manipulating these connections. Lights flicker? You found it.

 

Sounds like it might be a bad battery.

 

Ok I was able to figure out some more, the connectors at the clutch was wrong, they had one taped and I assumed it was the right one and didn't think more about it, but after I switched that I got the engine to turn but still not start. Not sure if I gets gas or not, any good suggestion how to find that out ??
Also when I connect the AC controls nothing happens as I turn on the fans, but as I adjusted the temp from 90 down to 60 the fans started up
Don't know how that can be all messed up. Also connecting the cable to the wiper motor starts the wipers, even though they are of, so something is wrong, just have to figure out what. Most connectors can only be connected right so not sure where there can be anything connected wrong. really need your help guys

Thanks

 

noid light will tell you if the injectors are being fired; if you don't have a pressure gauge, carefully loosen a fuel line fitting slightly to see if there is fuel line pressure.

but really, get a wiring schematic and go over your harness.....

 

Ok guys, when I turn the ignition I don't hear the fuel pump, so we wired it straight to the battery and it works. I know the key and the ECU is not programmed together as they come from different cars. So is there any one that can tell em when I need to do to get the car started, it cranks fine. Front lights do work, but is on with ignition, high beam don't work and rear light won't work as well. Rear turn signals work but not front. I have looked over all cables and even tried a different BCM but little change, got wipers to a weird inter-wall. I'm lost guys, so if anyone have any thoughts how I can fix this at home, please let me know

 

The key must be programed to the ECU, if not, i believe it is fuel cut.

 

Thanks man, so I have to take the key I have and the ECU to them or ?? is it any other way to get around it to test and see if the car will start ?? Also does anyone else know what the immobilizer cuts, fuel only or ignition as well ??
Any suggestions on the electric problems ??
