Hi Guys,

Just wondering if the ECU loom for a Futura is the same as say a XR or Ghia Loom. Talking I6 buy the way

Cheers

Yeah, i think there are a few models kicking around out there with fancy stuff like speed sensitive power steering so you probably want to avoid these parts if possible.

But yeah - an I6 loom is an I6 loom. Most of the differences arise in the BEM/body looms etc.

Ok cause i'm doign the el interior, dash, engine loom conversion and i jsut need to know thats all so pretty sure its the same like what loom does the knock sensor, oil sensory, etc all that run off

For starters, EEC will never see/hear about the oil pressure - that goes straight to the dash....

Knock sensor is simply an input to the ECU - so it runs in the engine loom.... pin 23 on the ECU IIRC...

Have you got a workshop manual mate? Im guessing the EL gear sets you back a pretty penny so its probably worth springing out for a max ellery's EF/EL book.... the ECU pinouts and wiring diagrams are the most valuable thing in there...

As for ECU - dash communication i think its just the data output link (pin 34) to the dash...

Also the smartlock signal (i.e. signal to EEC which tells it to allow engine to run)... pin 4

This will also help a great deal...
