complete moron needs more wiring help

[N2HIFI]

Ok heres the deal im gonna continue where i left off in the "needs help topic"

NC_REX and help you can offer would be great


ok so im done with my DX to SI swap except for the friggin wiring.
i found out i got the wrong dist from my local parts shop..well they actually oredered a dx dist. instead of a SI. Well i fixed this problem today and now have a si Dist. But im still having problems..i dont have a SI dist connector to put on my DX harness so i have to custom wire it in, but this is also the other issue the wiring on the new dist is different colors then what is in the chiltons i have so i cant just match colors and be done i have to find somebody that has a SI or has done the swap and has the pin out configuration.

What i need is this i have the following colors on my DX harness
org
org/blu
wht
wht/blu
2nd wht
c1 and c2
these match the chiltons wiring

now on the 8pin connector which pins would this goto?

pin out looks like this
-
---
---

1
234
567

so can sombody put the colors on the harness to the pins on the dist. if you have a SI all i need you to do is go to the car look at the 8pin dist plug and write down which color to which pin like i descibed above, use the single wire on top as a refrence.

Thanks in advanced
chris

Chris, I was out last night late and never checked my email, sorry I didn't see this earlier.

My Digital Camera is also out of batteries, or I would have snapped a pic and put it up here of the distirbutor's wiring.

I am working right now - actually jsut took a dinner and email break, ...working on a DX to SOHC VTEC wiring conversion - but it goes hand in hand with what your doing.

I'll take all the pics your gonna need.

I should have them again later tonight, or tommorrow...if for some reaosn they are not, they will be tommorrow night - things have been off the wall lately.

Do not confuse the WHT4 with the Igniter Wht. One of these white wires has a red mark on it right at the plug. Remember which it is because the stupid painted stripe will rub off! If you can't find the white stripe - the prognosis of a problem caused by these two wires swapped are cranking without spark and no check light.

The sensor sets are in a collumn top to bottom, white Igniter to the side of this collumn. That's the easy way to remember.

Good Luck.

Oh yeah, the top two wires are the CYL wires - BLUE/GRN and BLUE/YEL - they goto C1 and C2 - not sure which is which, directions you have will say.

If you need pictures of anything else let me know. I'll try to help some.

First off Thanks a bunch for the info


ok its like this if the pin out is like this
_1_
234
567

then the colors are as followes?

pin1-org/blu
pin2-white blu
pin3-org
pin4-wht
pin5-blu/brn
pin6-wht4
pin7-blu/grn


does this sound/look correct? i just wann double check cause i dont have the car at my place so i dont have the net avaiable to refrence when working on the car.

once again thanks a bunch

Chris, we need to organize this a little better:

Lets call the top of the connector where the tab is (locking tab circled in red) - and looking at the backside head-on - starting from the left side - the #1 pin:

1 WHT/BLU.....TDC
2 ORG/BLU.....TDC
3 Empty
4 WHT.........CKP/Crank
5 ORG.........CKP/Crank
6 WHT4........Igniter
7 BLU/YEL.....CYL
8 BLU/GRN.....CYL

So look at this pic and it should look like this:

....TAB......
....1..2.....
.3..4..5..6..
....7..8.....
.............

I'm gonna get a better picture then this. This picture doesn't really show everything like it should.
