Bob Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Big thanks to Jody T for being so patient with me and my paranoia, and keeping me updated with the order Also a thankyou to Lucifer, along with an apology for doubting his integrity. So I spent a couple of hours last night playing with the new harness and soldering various bits on - bloody well made bits of kit these! Oh, also a thanks to Ian C for ECU pin-outs FAQ No more updside down soldering for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl0s Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 being a noob i can get away with asking this you wot? It's like a little extension lead for the main ECU wiring loom. So rather than lying upside down with your head in the passenger footwell wiring-in all your electronic gubbins like FCD, SLD, Racelogic, etc, you just wire them into the little extension (Fields-clone Harness) in your workshop and go to the car and connect it up. Also means you don't have to cut up the wires on your factory wiring loom. I want one of these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lebsteif Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I want a field harness as well but they are damn expensive :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraAyf Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Good effort Bob. I just got mine last week from Paul Evans and it was all prepared too so I've been installing bits'n'bobs over the last few days (or should I say reinstalling and tidying up) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamanC Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I want a field harness as well but they are damn expensive :/ They are like a couple of hundred of the queens finest arn't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 They are like a couple of hundred of the queens finest arn't they? yeah. Not a million dollars really is it, but I suppose it's not seen as vital. I think I'll definately get one though, I didn't like cutting into the ECU wires on my last car.

Ian C Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I'd pay way more than £200 for one, they are a godsend. Especially with an E-Manage Ultimate + injector adapter, RLTC, Wideband O2 sensor, Knock Amp, and Apexi AVCr plumbed in I can pull any or all of those in about 2 minutes and work on them on a desk in the warm Of course the Field Harness is now getting hard to lift it's got that much on it -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheefa Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Still a little confused though. Don't you still have to get under the car to plumb this in to all the other leads and connectors anyway? I understand that you bypass cutting into the ECU loom etc, but surely this still requires a handful of patience! Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted January 25, 2007 Author Share Posted January 25, 2007 5 minutes plugging / unplugging the ECU loom as opposed to hours of soldering and cramp in places you didn't think you could get cramp? Considering I only got mine for £160, it's possibly the most wonderful thing I have bought yet for the car! After trying to solder in the IGF wire for revs to my E01 and muttering various insults to whoever designed the original loom, I realised that anything that keeps me in love with the car is a good thing!
