electrical trouble after harness swap


Recommended Posts

Hello all, I have had this problem after swapping out the original harness with another one bought off a forum member. In fact I have had this same problem on my 88 Mitsubishi Starion with two swapped harnesses. The problem to put it in the simplest way is that I'm receiving a mixed positive voltage signal on 1 of the two injector terminals that should be reading 0 volts. The other injector terminal reads a perfect +12.8 volts as it should be. I am also getting the mixed positive signal reading on various other connector wires that should be giving me a ground signal. Most of these wires are on the relay connector wires for Alarm and AC functions behind the battery. Also I am getting a reading of 0 volts on some of those relay wires that should be getting a +12 volt signal. This problem is driving me nuts I have checked all the ground wires in the car for good contact and fuses including the fusible links.

I want to add that I don't have a ground which hooks up to the coil bracket that contains a small square black box resistor and runs from a white wire/connector into the driver side harness. For some reason the harness that I have is missing the resistor ground and the white wires/connector that feed into it. The root of my problem might be here I am thinking since the mixed voltage signal I am reading on my voltmeter is showing Millivolts which climbs from 20mv all the way to 200mV then .5V and keeps circling back down to 20mV again?

Really hard to troubleshoot generalizations, if you can go to the FSM electrical manual, http://www.starquestgarage.com, and provide exactly the points you are measuring and exactly the resultant voltages and or resistances are it would be a big help.
