I just started the install...i already hooked up the ignition power and groud wires. my car is obd2b and the apex diagram is kinda small, and all the pinouts are close together so it isn't clear. can someone help me out with which wires are which. It would be great if someone can tell me what color wires to splice into..thanks lot!

keep looking on the apexi site..there are a few diagrams that are hard to read, but you'll be able to find one that should work. you should also get a helms or haynes manual to cross check the wire colors anyway. i did that to make 100% sure when i did mine originally.

okay..i started the install, and i decided to finish it tomorrow because its dark. all i wired up was the power and ground. the car won't start now though, do i have to finish the install...or did i ---- something up?

i installed my vafc bout 3 months ago and the apexxi website had an update on the wireing diagram that was much clearer than their old wiring diagram. if your car won't start make sure you soldered all the wies correctly and you have the harness pluged in. it should start up. check your fuses too.

thanks. I just checked out the update, its way more clear.

oh well...all my fuses look okay, and car has full power. when i turn the key it cranks, it just doesn't start. Do you guys think i burnt my ECU?

no. make sure you plugged your ecu back in.

did you cut any wires?

wiggle the harness.

the ecu is pluged back in...

yes, i cut 2 of the wires in the harness, but i reconnected them. i tried to "wiggle" the harness.

no codes..all the fuses seem okay, unless i'm missing something...
