LS1 Engine fault light connection
Hello LS1 brains trust.
I am finishing off the dash wiring and want to know what wire/output to connect the Engine fault light to and the Not charging light to. Thanks Bruce |
aussie ls1s do not have a warning light
it all goes thru to the dash find a usa ls1 wiring diag as they have a mil light but then u have to retune the ls1 ecu to get the light to work i have gone thru stuff with people i deal with and think i have figured it out but ask your tuner first as he has to turn it on in your ecu otherwise it wont work its not a simple just plug in a wire and go for it i could set yr ecu up but it would cost you 300 bucks ls1 fly by wire alternator wires go straight to ecu u have to not connect these to ecu and find out what the wires do then connect them to i think battery and charge light in dash |
Got them. I have found the charge indicator signal wire and as mine is a US engine/pcm I also have a working MIL connector out of the PCM (I didnt know what MIL stood for)
Thanks Sideshow Bruce |
The truth
An easier solution is to hard wire the engine warning light so it is on permanently:D :D

im about to buy a new diagnostic scanner
you could always buy one of these for 7 g and mount it in the dash first thing is if you are goin to run a mil light then make sure yr tuner sets it up ok u have to go into the tuning software and make sure u turn afew things off so the light doesnt come on for wrong reasons like aircon or stuff thats not goin to be fitted another thing i would not mind doin one day but no cobra owner has gone this way y not run the ls1 dash i recently wire up an ls1 in a holden eh show car and customer wanted matching dash then afew weeks later i bought for the owner a red monaro dash his friend mounted it and i wired it up it looks sooooo hot the eh is hot red and the dash has full red dials i think someone who wants a modern futuristic looking cobra should do this if i had one this is the way i would go but for now my future dream car is a 61 corvette with a new holden efi engine and fully electronic matching dash |

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e2.../DashHSV-1.jpg The white HSV dials match the white seats which was a complete fluke!!! I have run the entire Commodore body loom with BCM, PIM and PCM. My car is basically a Commodore (in a lightweight body) with all functions such as cruise control, trip computer, auto headlights etc. etc. All standard fuse blocks and relays too... if down the track I ever sell this car, the owner can just take it into Holden for servicing. :p This made setting up things such as lights, indicators, brake lights an absolute breeze..... I just need to get my alloy trim for the gauge cluster cut on the water-jet machine (thanks to Cobber for the CAD work), then clearcoat the Carbon fibre so it looks cool!!! |

Are you going to run with the full CARBON dash on the passenger side or is a glove compartment coming ...IMO don't you think a compartment or even a fake door would break up all carbon and match the shape of the cluster ..just to give a balanced look??? Great use of the technology though.:) Paul |
A new bench mark
Plums,
Love what you have done, to use the complete commodore system is absolute genius. Dash looks hot. Phil |
