Wiring loom for Reverse Mount IM

[mastermind]

Hi Guys, complimnets of the season to you,

I am installing the Wagner reverse mount inlet manifold and would like to know if there is a wiring loom available to extend the TPS and the Air Temp Sensor.

I would prefer not to slice up and add an extension to the wires, and hoping there is a plug in extension I could purchase.

Does anyone know if such an extension is available

Oooh, yeah I'd like one too

All you need is a JPT 2-pin connector... one male, one female and the corresponding pins - they are special crimps though with a funky tool though. Actually thinking about it - cost of that tool kind of kills doing this on the cheap as a DIY job - I can easily make something up for little money if I know how much cable is involved. Even in small quantity those JPT plugs, pins & hoods are pretty cheap.

Price would be parts plus postage plus a beer voucher

I'd be interested in one as well paul

[madpugger]

There is the TPS as well no?

Anyway, I'd give you cost plus a few beers Paul, no problems there

6-pin JPT is available aftermarket as well... let me know the cable distance involved - maybe with a diagram to make it absolutely clear and I can look at prices for the bits, some heatshrink etc... Then I can knock up a prototype for someone to verify.

I'm fitting one of these too Paul so interested.. Can be guinee pig too if you like.

This is a great idea! I chopped my loom and extended it and the TPS one coursed no end of trouble as the soldering was tricky to do due to very little cable length.

The only thing that wont work for 3b is the inlet manifold temp sensor as its wired in an not plugged like aby, adu and aan ones. So it has to be chopped and extended.

Will get photos etc tomorrow Paul, should be fitting mine very soon

Here's the connectors chaps

Needs a source for 6 pole male as well. I need to dig out some notes and a receipt of where I bought some recently. Pretty sure they had wider range of bits.

[S2central.net]

Drat - they didnt stock 6pin male either. A quick web search shows them to be hard to find which is a pain. I felt sure I had found one source in the past. The other alternative is Bosch or audi as a source if I can locate the right part numbers

[newsh]

Part no for the femal MAF connector

"MAF uses 6-pin JPT connector, VAG part 022906233A for housing + 022906102B boot"

Sounds like a group buys coming together

I remember now... The 6pin male is odd as I only found bulkhead or pcb style connectors before now - like on the MAF or the TPS. Will keep looking.
