Last Question I Promise!! TPS Signal Wire?

Remove this ad
Alright guys, hopefully this will be my last question when wiring up this nitrous kit (which is something I hope to never do again!!!). Which wire off the TPS should I tap to get signal for my WOT switch in my nitrous controller? I know I can get it off the PCM but I would prefer to do all the wiring in the engine bay.

Thanks!

Dark blue one

Found the info below at: http://www.widebandcommander.com/wbc...spx#gm_ls1tach




I hooked mine up to the dark blue wire right behind the throttle body, works great for my tps switch.

Re: Last Question I Promise!! TPS Signal Wire?

Thank you very much! I'm going to run the WOT to this wire and the RPM to one of the wires off an ignition coil!

Re: Last Question I Promise!! TPS Signal Wire?

I used one of the white RPM wire where those 2 big harness are. Driver side engine bay, same wire bundle the MAF harness connects to. Found that one from back in my maggie days. Either should work though...

Bet you cant wait! I played with mine a bit last night: (green light in the AC vent means it's spraying)



Not sure if that vid breaks any rules, hope not

Re: Last Question I Promise!! TPS Signal Wire?

Good luck with the nitrous kit. I recently re-wired mine this way.....I still prefer my old momentary push button in my left hand.

The only rule I see broken is the stereo noise drowning out the engine music.

Re: Last Question I Promise!! TPS Signal Wire?

The quality is actually real good in that video. Is that an HD camera?

Naw, it's just a Canon ZR900 or 930? Its a mini DV camera. It's not the newest camera out but it was one of the only cameras i could find with a mic input. The only hard drive cameras with a mic input were like $1k and up. I used microsoft movie maker, and when i had to choose the quality to save it in i think i chose the "playback for local something?" It was one level above the 768k option. I saw that you tube is allowing HD, so i figured they could handle the extra file size with no probs!

I think this video looked even better, especially if you click the HQ at the bottom right:

Is that the camera making your interior lights dim or the cam?

That thing sounds NASTY!

It was the camera for some reason. It stops at like 2:50 into it. I think maybe the inside/outside lighting caused it to keep adjusting it? Not really sure, but yea it was just the camera.

Oh and thanks!

Re: Last Question I Promise!! TPS Signal Wire?

Minus the load time the HD is nice! What camera mount are you using anyway? I bought a stickypod and I'm trying to figure out the best setup for V-day.
