small MTX swap milestone

[redshoman]

SO after tearing down the motor, rebuilding that, tearing down the tranny.. finding a smoked diff pin.. finding another trans.. tearing that down, rebuliding it.. painting all that was crusty that came off the doner, getting a subframe from cali, installing the pedals, and batteling the exhaust... all I have left is the wires..


About everything matches up other than the AC stuff.. Ive been told Ive got to swap pins in C101 and C100.. I think 104 too??? guess I'll get to that next weekend.. but baby steps... I used the engine harness, PCM and CCRM off a 95 mtx and the front clip and body stuff off the 93 ATX.. most of the stuff has to wire up the same. now i just gotta stare at the EVTM's for too long to figure it out

all that.. and i cant fiure how to get photos on her from photobucket.. ha ha ha

If you want to keep the engine MTX harness and the receivers car is an ATX , The C100 C101 connectors wont mate so you have to splice. its a PITA.

Have both EVTM in hand. I have done it , and its not that easy.

yea?! even though I didnt touch those? I never touched either end of the 101 or 100.. The only one that connects the engine harness to the body harness is c104 (grey 16 pin) above the bell housing in the center of the trans. Havent gotten to far into it but looks like I'll have to dive in soon

Those 2 connectors (above the airbox) wont mate for some stupid reason that Ford only knows why. This is what is looks like when done.

If I was to redo this , I would pull the dash and swap the interior harness instead of splicing it , more time consuming but less hassle.

I didnt even swap the harness that the headlamps and cruze are on.. the only connector that intergrates the engine harness to the car harness is C122 and im not having much luck with that.. I dont know why i would go poking around C100 and C101 without touching them before.. everything should be in the C122 connector( baring speedcontrol and ATX controls)...

Then you seem to know better , so let us know how it goes.

got it fired up.. All but three pins go threw C122 and 3 pins go threw c116 for ccrm power... now just gotta button her up and do the finish work.. slow day at work, but atleast i banged that out..
