wiring

Hey guys, I have a 09 hsv e2 senny sig 6.2l and was looking under the rear seat at the wiring and i've noticed on the left hand side (Battery side) the wiring loom is exposed and in one it is melted and burnt. Would anyone know what this loom is for/controlling? Ive had 2 fuel pump failures in...

My V8 ute is having a short or something. If I put the terminals on its got a lot of spark like a welder plus the battery heats up. The negative terminal wire is melted and there is smoke everywhere. the wires get hot from the terminals to the altinator. Altinator is bran new and battery. Can...

Hey, Long story short I was replacing a fuse that went on me today. I checked all the fuses since I had it open and in removing one I broke one of the small metal arms that holds the fuse in place (I'm not sure what the correct term is, essentially the receiver for where the fuse plugs in)...

Looking at anti-theft alarm info in a manual I came across this image showing the various control modules in VT-VY cars and I'm perplexed by this "diversity antenna module". I can't find any references to it online in relation to Commodores. What does it do?

Hi everyone, didn’t know if I should post in the VN-VP section or on here but I’ll give it a shot... So I’ve recently purchased a 1990 s2 VN SS 355 after not having one for about 10 years. So basically the car won’t start, doesn’t have power to the pump, and no spark. I thought I’d start with...

I'm doing a LS1 conversion into a VL and am almost done. I've just realised I've cut the MAF/IAT wiring out without realising I need it. It's overfuelling, fouling plugs and running progressively worse the longer it runs/hotter it gets. After realising it's absolutely necessary to have a IAT...

Hey guys so a few weeks ago I installed new speakers in the front and rear doors of my vz wagon which worked just fine but a couple days back the front two started sounding a bit crackly so I thought I'd best re-wire them. So far I've redone only from the speakers to the crossovers (Bypassing...

Hi all, I recently got a dash cam with a cigarette lighter adaptor for my car, but due to the location of the normal cigarette port in the VY I can't really mount the camera without wies running around the cabin of my car. Has anyone mounted a dash cam in their vehicle, and if so how did you get...

G'day guys, I've just recently done a manual conversion on my 2005 vz calais 190kw. The problem is when I bought the conversion I was sold everything except all the control modules. Now I have the car running and driving, only problem is, still running the auto ECU it thinks it is still in park...

I'm in the middle of installing new speaker's to my front doors and was mainly looking at speakers with built in tweeters. I was wondering if this model of car had tweeters installed in it. I don't believe it's been worked on despite what I've done myself, such as installing a new head unit and...

hi all. Did an LS1/4L60E transplant from my S2 VT SS into a VU ute LS1 model but NOT an ss. So down to the issues During the transfer i noticed a few differences. The vt had ABS but the VU did not (no fuses for it, no module and no brake lines coming from the booster). The vu's harness plugs...

Hi all, I just bought a dashcam for my vz and I want to install the cable by running it under the A pillar trim and down the door frame. I'm just a bit worried about breaking the trim if I try to remove it, and info on the net is a bit scarce.. Can anyone shed some light on how to remove the...

G'day boys. I got my self a Vz calais rooflining and pillars in black to do the conversion in my Vx ss. Best thing I've ever done love the black look over the beige crap it had. My question is it also came with the map light sunglass holder which I've fitted everything in looks great. The Vz...

Been lurking these forums for years getting answers to my problems, just decided to make an account. I have a VS Sedan with power windows. right side drivers window would not go up or down, replaced motor at the mechanics to find it will only go down now and not up. So i was told a new switch...

Hi, I've just bought my first brand new car at age 57 and I've fitted a tracking device from Jaycar. Works great but I want to also use it to immobilize the car via text message. I thought I could do this by cutting the power to the fuel pump but I don't want to do anything that will void...

Just finished installing my vz calais memory seats in my base model vx just want to show how i wired them as i couldn't find a decent wiring diagram. The vx has 2 wires already for the standard seats which are just power and ground. I had to run a new wire from an ignition source to the new...

Hello, first ever post so.... yeah. I have been trying for a week or so to resolve an audio issue in my newly aquired WK Caprice. The audio is stuck on phone mute - if I turn it up full volume then I can hear the radio/CD/DVD faintly. First time I got sound out of it for about 5 seconds...

Just wondering if anyone knows if the body loom is the same between E1 Clubsport and a VE omega? We have a wrecked clubby and an Omega to transplant the drive train into. We have the dash loom removed and was wondering if we have to take the body loom too from the clubby? Cheers

Hi, was wondering if anyone could offer any advice? After driving through *almost* flood water on my way to work, I noticed that the driver's side headlight had stopped working. Swapped it with passenger side, and they both worked, but very dim. Found ground near back of battery and cleaned, but...

The easiest and most cost effective way to go about this conversion is to buy a donor car. 304 powered VS' can be had for under $1000 at the moment, and after selling off a few unwanted parts from the donor vehicle, you can minimise the overall costs of your conversion. I'll just outline a few...

Ok so im no stranger to car's, mechanics, wiring, or anything that has to do with cars. But for some reason im losing my training when it comes to wiring up a set of digital gauges.... I mean its simple 3 wire setup and for some reason I cant get the gauges to work properly? 1wire for...

Since this is my first post on here I'd like to thank all of you who have contributed so much knowledge to help out the less informed such as myself. My issue is with my alternator wiring (alternator tested okay). The wire from the alternator to the battery is fine but I'm not sure how to go...

Hey guys. I had my rear taillights replaced on my VE sv6 oday to the LED ones and I noticed a tonne of extra wiring on one side of the car. Here's a pic : http://i.imgur.com/GctGLdAh.jpg As you can see there are a tonne of wiring, that isn't present on the other side. The guy who sold me...

Hey guys, I have a VP V6 and the thermo fan isn't working. I'm not an electronic whiz so hopefully someone can help me. When I got it, the fan was hooked up to a switch in the cabin because it wouldn't work, but I realised they had put a 4 pin relay where a 5 pin should be. (Cabin fan didn't...

I have a VE sv6 and im stumped on where the hell a grommet is to feed the power wires from the mufflers into the car? Anyone help please!?

Hi guys, just need some info on the relay box under the hood of my VP V6. The dodgy old bloke who had it before me decided to absolutely annihilate all the electrics. Pretty much nothing worked when I got it but things are slowly starting to fire up. I went to pick up a new bumper and the bloke...

G'day lads, I've got a tricky question for you all. I've wired up my DRLs using a relay, in line fuse and a in cabin switch. The positive wires from the switch and relay have been hooked up directly to the battery and same goes for the negative wires from the switch and relay. When the...

Hello All, Just finished installing some 6x9's in my VX 2002, much by trial and error. Thought I'd share with everyone and save people some time. There's no step by step that I could find on here that simplified things for us less savvy. 1. Remove back seat bottom part. (Pull two ties...
