1. Problem, gauge pod is not operating. It is receiving power and the odometer is working but nothing else is reading. The speedometer doesnt work, the rpm gauge does not work, will not read fuel level, says its empty and it actually full. Several caution lights are on.

The car turns over fine, revs up fine, not pushing it because of the new turbo without tune.

Install/remedy.

1. UTEC, took it back off connected the ecu back up to the wiring harness and still the problem exists.
2. Checked the fuses that have to do with the electronics and ignition all were good.
3. Disconnected the boost gauge and AEM wideband problem still exists.
4. Installed my friends gauge cluster(still there)
5. The only power that I tapped into was the cigarette lighter because it was a close ignition power source.
6. I connected my ground to a screw that bolts down the gear shift ring plate

I dont know what to do. I was thinking of putting my friends ecu into my car and turning it on to see if the problem goes away but I dont know if that will work.

Any suggestions or ideas?

What gauges?

 

The gauge cluster pod on the steering column

 

Gotcha..

Well my next question was the fuses but you checked those..

What turbo kit?

 

turbonetics

 

I just checked every fuse and there were 2 fuses that were blown, the mirror and cigarette fuse. Everything else was good, check again and still nothing is reading.

 

tow it to performance factory and have jeremy look at it.

 

I am not familiar with the Turbonetics Kit so you might want to check with MiaPlaya or Tauran as they are T'Netics gurus.. I am sure some wiring got messed up and its a simple fix..

 

At $100 an hour to look at it, I will pass. Thanks though. Any other Ideas.

 

Is there a way to check the ecm off of the car? Maybe be able to take it to the dealer and have them test it?

 

Yea they can test it out but I doubt that is your problem.. That is also going to cost you some $ too.. Might be a good idea to take it too Jeremy as he will probably know exactly where to look.. Or get ahold of the guys I told you too and they can also help you I am sure..

 

Are they on the forums? I dont know who they are.

 

Taurran started THIS thread so go pm him..

If you blew fuses, you shorted something. First figure out what you did wrong. Fix that. Then look at the service manual for the wiring diagram and see if you can trace the wiring from the blown fuses back further to a fuse higher up in the chain (like the one off the battery that feeds the smaller fuses).

 

I know Jeremy, he installed my utec for me.

Thanks Kenk2, i contacted them.

Is there a place that I can find the service manual online to get the wiring diagram?

 

+1..

Fix what got screwed up, then backtrack.. If you need the service manual, I have it saved on my computer.. I can AIM it to you..

 

I dont have aim but I do have yahoo,

I dont have anything that is connected from prior everything has been taken off minus the tn kit itself, non of the wiring is still hooked up except for the hot wire leading to the cig lighter. that is not connected to anything. Not sure where I should look, I guess once I get the wiring diagram I will trace the wires.

Your profile says you have AIM too.. No yahoo here.. You got ahold of MIA or Taurran so I think your in the right direction.. Just take your time and you will get it, dont sweat it..
