corrado VR6 conversion help... OBD1

Recommended Posts

ok so i put my VR engine in my corrado plugged all in (along with a set of VR clocks) and i have a few issues,

theres no illumination on dash and no fuel pump priming,

 

i plugged the four white plugs into the back of the fusebox but left all the single plugs free..

 

the car is a 1990 corrado 1.8 16v and the ancillaries etc from a 1992 OBD1 golf..

 

please help as im trying to sell the car and want to sell it as a runner..

 

oh and the only other thing i noticed is the engine loom didnt have anywires connecting to the battery, is this right? the positive lead on my battery now goes to the starter and only has one wire going into the lighting loom..

 

thanks in advance..

This isn't 100% was a long time since I messed with obd1 in a mk2, I've never done this in a corrado, there should be a yellow and red wire that you wanna plug into a live point on the end of the fuse board, that should solve ya pump priming. I'll try and find a pic to help, I'm guessing you have a heavy red in your lighting loom providing power to the fuseboard, i had my mk2 battery to starter, earth to gearbox, gearbox to chassis.

I'll be wiring a obd2 into a corrado tomorrow. So I'll see what similaritys we have and keep ya posted.
