MK Wiring

Hi,
Are you wiring from scratch? Or, do you have a Vicky Green Loom? When i did mine a few years back, i used a vicky Green wiring loom of which the diagram is quite easy to follow. Also you should be able to download the diagram off the net, or if you ask somebody on here nicely they will post a link on here.
Cheers Eric.

hi

this is where its been made difficult, i brought the kit part done with most parts. its got a elise engine, ecu, loom and dash so with the loom sat in a heap on top of the engine it looks a mess and i dont know where to begin. using a new loom might be the way to go but i would still need some help.

cheers

My advice would be to buy a Premier wiring, loom and start again.

The Premier wiring loom is high quality and very easy to install with step by step instructions.

you will still need to splice the Elise loom in to run the clocks and ecu so would need the Elise wiring diagram as well

Do you have Elise clocks? If so, I seem to remember something about them that makes them very hard to get going properly (I have no experience with them specifically). If you absolutely must have those instruments, I think you will be in for a long road here. Make things as easy as you can, and if it means selling Elise clocks and loom to do it, just move on and finish building your car. I am certain you are not the first to cross this bridge and live to tell the tale.
