There is a plug with two thick green wires thats under the kick panel (right beside the blue and brown wires plug for the outside air temperature), thats for the fuel pump, that was probably the one you disconnected. The car would crank but will not fire.

Thanks. Good to know for next time.

After replacing my dash, I also must have missed something... My HVAC light that is behind the fan section wont turn on. I am not sure what I missed. And I cant figure out why my lightbar is not turning on.

After putting in the new dash and plugging in some wires the car started up again. Im still not sure which wire it was but the important thing is it started.

I drove my car around for about a week with the dash and cluster out as well. For the windows to work you have to have the window breaker plugged back in.

You plugged the computer and all the other electrical boxes back in in the glove box area, right?

you should take it out and put it back in again.

I know this may sound stupid but one time my car would
crank but won't start unless I have jumper cables on it

[e30Hungry]

yeah it cranks but no fire.

[e30shmobberr]

just pulled my dash today to get to some wiring so i can source my s50 electrical issue.

if it was done right, you would have labeled every connection you disconnected. or taken photos as notes.

you windows will not roll down most likely because you disconnected the window breaker.
(think thats what its called).

as for the start, what happes when you turn the key? will it crank but no fire, or just nothing.

It is my first time doing this so I'm not entirely sure.

My battery is plugged in and i don't think i disconnected anything that's hooked up to the ecu.
