terribleturner Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 May escape to the car tomorrow and start to install my RLTC. Now i'm happy with where everyting goes apart from this bit (Photo Below). Obviously the coloured wires go to the Speed Sensor wires, but were does the silver one go?? Can't see it listed anywhere. Also it does say that the speed sensor wires to the coloured ones don't really matter, but has anyone found that there is a real order to doing them??

Terminator Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 Hi and Merry Christmas. Unless you already know which sensor is attached to which wire in the car, just stick them on any how. The configuration drive will allocate the signals to a wheel channel in the RL unit for you. I have lost my diagrams:( so cant help with the silver one. It looks like a screen so I would guess earth.

Zed Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 The silver is just the sheilding to the cable as a whole, ideally connect it to an earth. As terminator said, the four speed sensor wires can be connected in any order since these will be allocated to whichever wheel when you do the config drive, or you can jack each wheel in turn and rotate it to work out which channel a wheel corresponds to. I hope your flexible because it is extremely awkward working on those wires, I installed mine a few months ago, brilliant system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 Is it just a wiring job to fit this piece of kit? I will be getting one all going well thrown in with the deal for my supra so if its straight forwards wiring then I'll do it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted December 25, 2005 Author Share Posted December 25, 2005 It does seem pretty easy. The link Lui put up is good and makes it sound not too hard. Am i right in thinking i can remove the harness to the ecu to wire it all up neatly? Only real thing that i feel may be a small problem is setting it all up properly and of course deciding where to install the digi adjuster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 I put mine below the stereo in the double din place. Thought it would do there for now till i am 110% where im going to put it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merckx Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Can i bump this for peace of mind please You can , I did. I didn't use those multi-connector things that you get with it, soldered everything with some good quality heat shrink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 The is not a lot of room as the loom is quite short. You can take the passenger seat out to give better access. The hardest part of the job is conecting the ABS sensor wires. Having some good long nose pliers and three hands is very useful. Setting up is not a problems if all the eletrical connections are done correctly. To configure, you can either do the configuration drive with the 180 degree turn, or jack up the car and spin the wheels and use the adjuster to identify which channel is connected to each wheel. It may help to adjust the minimum wheel speed while you spin the wheels as spiining them up to 14Kph by hand is quite difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terribleturner Posted December 29, 2005 Author Share Posted December 29, 2005 Not a big fan of CF tbh. Would look alot better if the entire dash was carbon to though i guess. What's the box on the right?? Can't put mine there coz that's were my mini disc player goes. I was thinking maybe to the right of the dash or perhaps in the ashtray (see below), but think i may possible mount it below my gauge pod. Can you tell i still can't decide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
