93139, ECU Harness wire color codes same for 98 and 97
Posted by brokenrodguy, Sep-14-05 07:13 PM
I tried to search but got no solid answer. Heres the problem my ecu and most of its harness got in a fire. My car is 98 and I got a new 98 ECU. I have to cut the the burnt harness off. I found a new harness from a 97 but will the color codes match the the wires of my existing 98 harness ?

check it out, go to 97 ECU pin outs and 98 ECU pin outs and see if they match, it looks like a couple pins are different but not many

ok it doesnt seem that hard but what do I do if the harness has a blank unused that the ecu needs ?

I am not sure but i think the 98 Ecu plugs are different? Look into it when you pick up the 97 harness.

ECU Plugs are definitely different. 96-97 same plugs, 98-99 same plugs. 95 all on it's own.

ok so i can get a 97 harness and 96 ecu. Will that work ? Now I would still have to fight with the pinouts.
