A couple stupid questions

Post by SonOfAnarchy ZA »

ok Sorry for the stupid questions but id rather be safe than sorry. I'm wiring up my Dicktator and am worried about a few things

1. Regarding the injectors i see they switched with negative by the ecu. That obviously means the other side is positive my question is do i run it through the ignition?

2. On the coil packs i know there is a negative, positive and signal from what i measure the negative is a given then there is a positive common from what i can see then a separate wire for each coil going to the ignitor i assume that it is the signal. The "common Positive" do i run it through the ignition as well? and its that a common positive?

No such thing as a stupid question .

Always run any switching through a good quality relay. By using a relay you can either switch neg. or pos.
The ignition will then in turn switch the relay.

Same for the coil packs. Make sure you once again use a quality relay that can handle the current draw required by the coil packs.

A lot of installs will actually switch the coils and injectors via one single relay , I prefer keeping the two circuits separate.

Get a std wiring diagram and trace the wires on there.
