Couple last wiring question, definitive answers please

[sharky]

OK so I need to do a couple last things to finish the wiring on the S52 E30

1) I am running the block off plate on the E34 pan, I dont want my idiot light coming on everytime I get in the car, what do I need to do to fix this (not just removing the bulb) what wires to what and what ohm resistor do I need.

2) The signal the goes to the green plug in the back of the cluster for the soft rev limit cut goes to what wire on the green connector and to what pin in the harness

3) Where the E30 has the power dist block on the firewall pass side, I have main power in the large socket (obvious) the two fuse box leads also hooked up there the main power off the harness hooked up to the power also. The OBD port ground is mounted to the tower. I have 1 other wire that I cant figure out where it goes.

Help is appreciated as I need to get this thing running asap.

Thats what figured but where? where the fusebox wires mount?

[sharky]

anyone else, also I have a TRM tune, does thisn negate the soft rev limit?

[sharky]

Oh yeah, also there are 2 wires/connectors in the glovebox, 1 is black violet with a small 1 pin connector and one is green/yellow with a small black 1 pin. Where do these go. Its a 87 is BTW.

Its around here somewhere. Ill search real quick.

The 3 in a row. Green. They are all the same. Use a meter to check for continuity. They will all read that they are connected. Your Cruise control may be into one. I would need to look at all your wiring diagrams to decide that.

What year model harness. Some pics would rock to.

Harness I am fairly sure is from a S50 so 95. I would have to confirm with BenM but I am 99% sure. Let me see if I can get some pics.

1) C101 Connector Pins 2 & 10. Pin 2 should be wired to a ground, pin 10 should be wired to a ground with a 1K ohm resistor.

2) Pin 26 of the C3 Connector, a Brown/Red wire.

3) There was an extra wire that should be taped off and not used for anything. I believe it was the power for the E36 fusebox.



- The Black/Violet Wire is for the A/C Input on the Motronic DME (C136 Connection on the 87 325is)
- Not sure what the Green/Yellow wire is. Currently searching in the ETM.

OK so I am going to do this today, just to clarify and one of the two wires coming off of the green speedo plug are fine to be tapped? They are both the same color.

When grounding the oil sensor light I go pins 2&10 how do I ground it. Do I run pin 2 straight to a ground (shock tower?) and then pin 10 with a wire, 1K ohm resistor wired in line and then finish to another ground someplace else or can I just use the shock tower again at the same point. Please help!
