Hello, first time engine swapper just wanna get some more experienced eyes to look over my Pinout I made to my specific swap:
Im swapping an M50 out of a 92 525i into my 89 325i.
E30 89 325i / E34 92 M50
1 Alternator Charging (Blue) / 25 Alternator (Blue)
2 Oil Level Static (Green/Yellow) / 1 Oil level Static (Blue/Yellow)
3 Not used
4 Coolant Temp (Brown/Purple) / 12 Coolant Temp (Green/Grey)
5 Oil Pressure (Brown/Green) / 23 Oil Pressure (Brown/Green)
6 Diagnostic Connector (Green/White) 22 Diagnostic Connector (Green/White)
7 Ignition (2 x Green) / 21 Ignition (Green)
8 MPG gauge (White/Black) / 24 MPG gauge (White/Black)
9 Engine Speed (Black) / 20 Engine Speed (Black)
10 Oiil Level Dynamic (Blue) / 2 Oil Level Dynamic (Blue White)
11 SI Reset (Green/White) / 7 SI Reset Black (Violet)
12 Check Engine (Grey) / 8 Check Engine (Grey)
13 Fuel Pump (Green/Purple) / 13 Fuel Pump (Green/Purple)
14 Speed signal input (Black/White) / 14 Speed signal input (Brown/red)
15 Starter thin Wire (Black/Green) 15 Starter thin Wire (Black/Yellow)
16 Diagnostic Plug (Black/White) / 19 Diagnostic (White/Green)
17 Not used
18 Starter Thick Wire (Black/Yellow) / 18 Starter Thick Wire (Black/Yellow)
19 Not used
20 Not used On Body But car has ABS???
The M50 Harness obviously has more wires, I was curious if I can just delete (remove) some of the unused wires...
#4 - Compressor Control Relay
#5 - Trans Cooler
#6 - Climate Control Module
etc ...
...none of those connect to anything on the M20 body/harness since obviously those functions/features are not there...am I safe to just go ahead and remove all those without Ill-effects on the overall engine function? (probably a complete Facepalm question but I just wanna be sure)
Thanks
