24v harness adapters

[Yezus_Krys]

Hey I need one ASAP! Still have?


Sent from an Abacus

Yeah i have pins/connectors in stock too.

These days i mostly do software but i don't mind the odd adapter here and there. :-P

[James Crivellone]

Nando! I am in need of the skills. Can you still build to order, good sir?

Pfft, Nando gets some references from this guy, he's been talking about 24V swaps since BMW started making the damn engine!

I read it on my phone - I can do the '86, but in order for it to be plug & play, you'll have to send me the C104 connector cut off of your original engine harness. Also, you will still have to run the VSS signal from the cluster because the 86' doesn't have that signal. the adapter would come with a long enough splice to bring the signal into the engine bay.

PM'd you.

Just got mine - took quite a while since i'm in canada, but looks to be well worth it! Build quality looks 110% - super excited to get this swap to fire!
Thanks man!

[nando]

I can make them, i build them to order. I just stocked up on wires and pins.

Is it too late to get in on an adapter?

I sent a pm a couple days ago and am just waiting on a response

Quick question: We have the E34 pan in our racecar, totally gutted out. Is there a simple way to wire up a low oil warning so we can have it light up inside the car? This would help if we miss checking the oil level or develop a leak during a stint to bring the car in before it is starved for oil. Nobody looks at our gauges anyway but I am planning a loud buzzer or horn inside the car wired to all the idiot lights, this is a nice to have not a need to have. I assume it's a simple switch when it gets below a certain level but have never investigated.

1 to 10 and 3 to 2 :P

[nando]

they have to go to a specific pin. however, you can't really mess them up on your end, the 3 pin connector on the sensor is keyed and only fits one way.

Does it matter what pin on the connector goes to pin 10 and pin 2? For example can pin 1 on the connector got to either pin 10 OR pin 2 or does it have to go to a certain pin? I just did an oil change so I might wait on troubleshooting the sensor till the next change

[nando]

I'm having an issue with the oil level light, might just be the sensor. Can you fill me in on how this damn thing works?

it's wired through pin 2 and 10 on the C101. the 3rd wire is a ground (one guy in the past was grounding them on pin 20, which is absent on some E30s and actually a 12v source on others). I can't remember which is which off the top of my head, but one is a "dynamic" level output and the other is "static". I don't really know what that means, but unless the wires are broken or something it's probably the sensor. Maybe check that the ground is well connected?
