the red one dont need to be connected as theres a red on the 2littre loom that goes straight to the battery. the black one needs to run just buy the dispac on the 2 litre loom as its an ignition live. the black/blue, red/white and black green are not used. the brown/yellow will join the brown yellow on the corsa loom

Thanks very much everyone

yep, as above^^^^

as for the wires by the alternator:boggle: never had to do that when doing a conversion.

if its a dizzy engine then you also need to connect the black wire from the coil to a switched live. (has a plug on the end that looks like a lambda sensor plug) you will find it in the loom that goes to the coil

Black/blue and black/green are aircon in the xe loom and arent used, red/white is auto transmission and isnt used. One of the brown/yellows is TC and isnt used.

The brown/yellow from pin 13 is the wire to the diagnostic plug and is connected to the brown/yellow on the corsa 9 pin plug.

The rest of the colours match up

Red - perm live
black- ign live
blue (black cover) - coolant temp
brown/blue - engine management light
green - revcounter
red/blue - fuel pump relay main feed
brown/white - diagnositc plug

the black wire should come out near the battery on your car.im a little confused as to the wire, maybe u2u beardy ;)

u2u`d Beardy an he says

you just do colour to colour mate you will have some wires left over.
just make sure your ECU has a Swtich live

The black wire needs to be connected to the positive live as for the red im not 100% sure. i'll have a think

What colour is the 4 wires you have left from the XE loom?

Just so you dont say it - yes i have looked in tutorials but cant find the answer i am looking for

i have wired up as much of the xe loom as i possibly can but i am left with two wires coming from the corsa part of the loom one is red and one is black

i also have four wires coming from the xe loom from the plugs

all i have done is swapped the looms over as my loom was knackered but i now have spare wires.





Any one got any ideas what i should be doing with these, i think the four which are still connected to the plugs are to be left as they are but the two coming from the corsa loom are causing confusion
