Hi Everyone

The build is going well - I am just about to dive into the world of electrical gremlins! I had a question about the LS Engine Harness / power supply / immobilizer addition:

I have purchased an immobilizer that had an input/output for fuel pump, ECU, and engine start button... basically, until the unit is not disarmed, it does not allow the engine to start, or send power to fuel pump/ecu... also, in the event of a car jacking, it cuts off power to the ecu/fuel pump and prevents re-starts until the unit is disarmed again

Now - I understand the wiring for the start button... just cut the wire between start button and start relay, and wire 'through' the immobilizer...
I am assuming it will be the same for the fuel pump - have the immobilizer in serial between the power supply and the fuel pump +ve lead - but which wire is that on the LS engine loom (on the fuse/relay side, as the actual lead in the engine bay is too far for immobilizer and it would be easier to take the feed from the relay/fuse junction)??

Thanks

Sounds like geek talk to me and something I'm also dreading...

When you use the AB power loom, you can immobilise there and it catches everything you need to "cut" wink I won't post on open forum how to do this, but speak to Jason and he'll give you the low down.

Folks: After chasing a gremlin in wiring that was causing inconsistent voltage to my Motec ECU, I will make a strong suggestion that power for the ECU of whatever brand be supplied directly off the Battery, thru a fuse of course. Because my ECU is mounted in the back of the car I had pulled power off of the hot terminal on the starter, bad idea. Particularly because the problem was very inconsistent. Lee
