Wiring advice needed please.

Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

 

have a few questions hoping some wiring guru may be able to help with. Currently deep into a rebuild with the rado, just purchased a Audi 3.2 lump and have some questions regarding wiring. I am being helped by one of my dads friends who owns a tuning garage, so the car will b e running on an Emerald K6 standalone system, I will also be getting them to provide a custom loom to make installation easier. question is this;

 

What standard wiring do I have to leave intact in the engine bay, I don't want to bog this guy down with too many questions as I want to learn it myself and im finding it quite a steep learning curve. I know it would negate the small engine loom, as in injector harness, cooling fans, fuel pump etc,. but could someone who has done this before please give me a break down on the different looms entering engine bay and which ones will need to remain?

oh also, are all late model corrado looms the same or are there differences between 16v vr6 etc. I know engine ones will differ but I also have to replace interior looms, rear spoiler looms well basically everything, so when sourcing new looms want to be sure they are all interchangeable?

 

I'm guessing all lighting looms will need to remain, plus any feed to the instrument gauge, ie, rev counter, speedo etc,as i want teh basic info to still work on standard cluster, stuff like oil temp, oil pressure etc can be displayed using a plug and play display on teh emerald system.

My understanding is that the standard ecu is removed and replaced by the emerald system, so any system running off that is replaced, but a beginner guide to what looms should remain and what need removing would be great. I can get an auto electrician in, but would like to do as much myself, I'm no idiot just this is way more than ive done before so any advice would be greatly appreciated. i am currently on page 59 of teh definative 24v guide, so am helping myself as much as I can, lol. Thanks in advance.

 

Max,
