Before you start

Statusproposal · not yet verified: nobody has reported building and running this harness
Open errorsnone
Size of the job45 wires · 8 connectors · 2 part lines
ToolsCrimp and extraction tools for each terminal family (see Connectors) · wire strippers · multimeter · heat gun + heat-shrink
Order of work1. Check every part against the parts list. 2. Cut and label every wire (labels: Export → Wire labels). 3. Crimp and pin connector by connector, ticking the build checklist. 4. Run the bench test with nothing plugged in and the battery disconnected. 5. Only then connect the ECU and power up.

Build checklist

Tick each box as you go. Continuity: meter from end to end, expect under 1 Ω.

Bench test (before first power-up)

Battery disconnected, ECU and every sensor unplugged. Meter on resistance. Each pair below must read open (OL): a reading means a pinched wire, a stray strand or a mis-pinned cavity. Then check continuity of every wire (last column of the build checklist).

warnNET_FAMILYOEM-2-L ↔ PROTEUS-White35-14OEM-2-L "Idle switch (TPS)" [digital_in] is wired to PROTEUS-White35-14 "Analog Volt 3" [analog_in]. Analog and digital on one net. A switch on an analog input works with a pull-up and a threshold; an analog sensor on a digital input loses its value.
infoNET_FAMILYOEM-2-F ↔ PROTEUS-Black23-13OEM-2-F "AFM ground" [sensor_ground] is wired to PROTEUS-Black23-13 "VR 1 negative" [trigger_in]. Trigger return tied to sensor/trigger ground: correct for single-ended trigger inputs.
infoNET_FAMILYOEM-2-I ↔ PROTEUS-Black35-9OEM-2-I "Tachometer output" [tacho_out] is wired to PROTEUS-Black35-9 "Lowside 11" [low_side_out]. Tacho as a low-side output: check the tach needs a pull-up.

Notes

Auto-mapped by auto_map() from the library pin data on 2026-10-06. Review every wire against both manuals before building. Not wired: - OEM-1 A: Constant +12V: rusEFI Proteus has no battery-constant input; not needed - PROTEUS-Black23 18: Ignition switch in: not fed (the stock ECU has no ignition-sense pin); feed it from a switched-ignition source
