tomaco1 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I had a 1999 Double Cab (body parts only) shipped over and am going to drop it on a 1983 frame with a 200tdi. My question is which harness would work best with this setup as I want to get rid of the overly complicated harness that supported the ECU's and all the other stuff unnecessary for a much simpler 200tdi setup. It appears I have an early TD5 setup as it still has the old Dash setup. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinny Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 It is possible to use the td5 loom, I have a 2.8 trooper engine working with a 02+ td5 loom.(Im still rebuilding the lr but the engine starts-runs and stops as it should) You need to use a relay to bypass the ecu and provide an ign - to make everything work. You will need to run new wiring for the glow plug timer relay.You may also need another relay to supply a + supply to the injector pump. You will have a bundle of extra wiring for abs/injectors/sensors you wont need, you can remove them from the loom or tape them up. You will have a better connectors on the td5 loom than the 200/300 bullet connectors. You can buy the male connector from the ecu to connect to the main loom. simtekuk.co.uk I modified the engine loom so the main loom is unmodified. Send me a pm If i can help any further on this Vinny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 TD5 loom is much nicer, and the ECU gubbins is largely a standalone harness which can be unplugged from the main loom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
