Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Ive just finished putting the 5.0l out of a el with a eecv ecu and just wondering if any can help im haveing problems with useing a auto computer i think was wondering what other people have done wireing wise.
thanks matt

You will need a J3 chip with the smartlock turned off I suspect

I have a smartlock bypass unit here I use on 5L converions, then send the ECU to the same mob, to get smartlock removed, I have the box, from when i fitted one to my RR years ago, before they removed it internally

Automotive EMF is the mob 1800 638 761, havent used them for a few years though as its been that long since I've done a 5L windsor, although will need to refresh as I'm meant to be wiring a 32 ford with one soon

Contact Killalux on here he will sort it for you and lives localy.

Cris[He did the harness for it.]

hey he should be able to fix your smartlock dramas, the other way to do it is to put a 2nd ignition barrel in with the smartlock key in it, behind the dash, you can use it as a kill switch if you want its what i did with my eb when i had remote start

Smartlock bypass is available and easy to do.
The issue with the auto trans to manual is the fact if the ECU doesnt get the correct signal from the auto it thinks it is in park or reverse and retards the hell out of the timing.
You can get a frequency injection box to fix the issue. I got mine from shiftkits.com They are not listed so you will have to email them , explain whats happening and get them to make you one up.

What model is the ECU out of? EB/ED had a seperate TCU.

A J3 chip will support the smartlock removal and in some instances you can use a manual trans tune in the chip. When inserted the ECu runs off the J3 chip not the internal tune. I have the software to tune these realtime, then write to a J3. It enables other issues to be fixed due to missing sensors and you can remove fault codes caused by the retrofit.

pretty much the best way to do it with the std ecu

What software do you use?

Im thinking i might go down the j3 path ive spoken to chiptorque about and they want 750 fitted and tuned witch i hope fixes the problem.
i was able to borrow a mates manual ecu and runs fine with that one

MATE! Get the T.I Perfomance Chip, way less than $750!

where do i get it from mate been looking everywhere?

The vehicle is fitted with smartlock bypass, thats not the prob.

It is also fitted with resistor to tell it its in neutral, and a frequency module in place of the TCM, as supplied by shiftkits.com.

Thats why we are having isuues sorting it out, everything is there, Unless the frequency module has an issue

Tell jason what you are doing and he will be able to tune the chip for your needs.

Thanks heaps Simonc3 he sorted me out and saved me 500 big ones.
cheers

just to let everyone know steve from killa kustom kables or killalux on outers done the harness for me and done a magic job of it nothing he did is causeing my problems.
I have done a few efi conversions before and and had harness done by other people and they whare a nightmiar, but steves one was so blody easy with good instrusions hooked it up engine started first try.
I will use him again and would recomend him to him to anyone.

Thanks steve your a champ.

Hey mate how did you go with it?

Went well according to Matt - he sent me some pictures of the car and i've uploaded them to the Owners Gallery on our website [cant post link as im a new member but follow link above].

I like doing gear for conversions - it's nice to see something different!

Cheers,
Jason

Yer all went good guys got a j3 chip for it now she running sweet tearing up the bush/beach lol.
Jason with the post above this one did the j3 for me it worked a treat.

Some awesome tech on your website

I know who to see if I go down the Windsor path. Wish you guys were around when I had my old XR8 some years back
