Terminator Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 What alot of effort. The ABS colours don’t matter as long as you find the four wires; the 180 configuration drive will identify the wheel locations, that is why a dat from one car will not work in an other car.

jot_ie Posted March 15, 2005 Author Share Posted March 15, 2005 The whole purpose was to find those four wires for sure. Btw, Terminator, I saved the original rltc dat file, for you, as shipped. Will send it by email John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest it only took me half an hour if that! I realise you don't need to know which wire is for each wheel but I thought I would make a note anyhow because you never know when it could be useful.

jot_ie Posted March 15, 2005 Author Share Posted March 15, 2005 Quick update I checked my wiring. The connectors I was using to tap in to the abs were giving trouble. Every time I moved them another one failed the rltc diagnostics test. So I spent this evening soldering them. They now work perfectly. The diagrams in the previous posts were 100% correct. Done and dusted.......... Many thanks guys John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 I would never use connectors in a car on important mods, ICE may be as your car and you will be OK if they fail. The amount of vibration is too great to give you 100% guarantee of a perfect contact. Solder and shrink = peace of mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jot_ie Posted March 18, 2005 Author Share Posted March 18, 2005 I wont anymore. I was tinking along the lines of easy removal, when/if I decide to sell the car. The guy in the motor factors recommended splice connectors. Foolproof says he. Foolproof my ass says I. Another lesson learned. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 For relatively easy removal you want a Field Connector Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
