Hiya all:
Yes, I know - very old engine/topic/etc. I have a complete Crown Royal saloon 1/2 cut. By that I mean it is (was) complete from the front bumper to where it was cut at about the front seat level. All harnesses, all dash instruments, and it all works fine. (Starts, runs, I can select gears and the output shaft turns etc).
Now I am fitting the engine and most of the parts to a hot rod.
I have partly dismantled the loom, removed plugs and associated wiring from stuff I wont need (ABS, airbag suspension, air bag and parts/controller, A/C, radio, TV, satnav etc etc. No problems so far, it's actually very straight forward. Each sub-loom seems to be fairly easily removed from it's controller, to it's switches/sensors and back to the repective fuse/relay box.
Just to be sure, I have labelled every cut wire, with what is was connected to, and where the cut end went. Lots of labels! But I could (if paid enough!) put it back and it would work.
Now my question:
Is there a wiring diagram available, FOR THE CROWN in case I come across an unknown wire/connector etc?
I have found module layout diagrams (very handy!) that show what controller went where, so I can figure out where any unknown connectors went and what they did, but I need to be able to guarantee a particular colour wire's function, or connector function.
I am a 40+ year computer guy (mainframes) so wiring is second nature.
But sometimes these Toyota guys can have a trick up their sleeves!
Also, anybody know the function if the connector strips that are hidden in the plastic loom housings? I THINK they are just a convenient way of connecting a lot of wires to one wire, but I'd like to be sure. (There is one that has a heap of what looks like jumpers, from one wire to a select group of others. Some sort of configurator perghaps?)
Thansk in advance.
Jeff.
