How to diet mark 8 harness ?

[69crewcab]

What's the best way to start this?
I have the motor harness attached to the sensors
Just need help figuring out the ccrm and VCRm modules and how to wire it all up

If you need wiring pinouts I can get them for you so that you can see which aren't needed

 

[69crewcab]

That would be awesome
Thanks

I'll get you most of the general ones but let me know if you want any specific ones let me know. I'll try to get them by the end of the weekend, should be home by Sunday. Just give me year make model to make sure I have the right ones

Thanks
94 Lincoln Mark

The eec pins and the 42 pin connector
If possible

Here's what I could get so far, I think these will be what you're looking for but I'm not sure exactly which connector. I also included some other ones that may be helpful. You should be able to find out which it is by comparing the wire colors. Like I said they don't tell you exactly what each wire is for so you'll have to compare the number on each wire to somewhere where it is listed, such as the pcm.

thanks for this..
Can I ask were you pulled these from?

 

[cpearson1342]

Alldata

 

[69crewcab]

So can u get more of the diagrams?

 

[cpearson1342]

Yes, as long as I can find out which connector you are talking about, they're not all labeled and some are just numbers

 

[69crewcab]

ok ill let you know

Could this be accurate for a 1993 Mark VIII?

 

[69crewcab]

its identical, I looked at both now.

Do you guys think it's worth dieting for the stock 93 ecu or would you try to convert to a OBDII ecu or stand alone?

I dieted my 94 harness
Wasn't too bad after reading up on it and tracing the wires out.
Obd I I has way more stuff that isn't needed and more of a hassle I think.
And I didn't want to spend $900 on a aftermarket setup.
I paid less then that for the whole mark viii lol

I'm just concerned with the tuning aspect of the eeciv. I'm weighting my options between eeciv, obd2 conversion and megasquirt. I live in TN so emissions isn't a concern. Does anyone have any megasquirt experience?

I bought an EVTM. Well worth it if you plan on thinning out the harness.
