I have read that the 8.3L SRT-10 motor wont start without the key that it is programmed to.
My dilemma is that I am working on swapping the engine into a Nissan 240sx and need a little help with the wiring... I have done some research but cant find exactly what I need.
Can I make the ECU not turn off without a key if I re-pin the harness/ECU and not run the ASD (Auto Shut Down) pins: 3 & 12 on the Gray Clip. (essential just remove some wires from the harness so they there is noting the PIN will send a signal to) But can not running these PINS make the ECU not start the engine?
Will this prevent the ECU from shutting down the motor or am I misunderstanding something? Or can the dealer flash the ecu/reprogram it by removing whatever system it has to turn the engine off without the key or correct key with the code?
As this is a Drift car that doesn't run a key, and a customer chassis harness by me.
Is this something someone has done?
There is also a couple of other PINS that I cannot figure out and YES I HAVE THE PIN LAYOUTS so dont attach them or post a link to them as I have copies in my hand.
5 volt supply - I just run power to from the battery or Relay
the GEN FIELD CONTROL- I have figured out that it has something to do with the alternator but do I run power to the wires or do those wires from the alternator power the ECU? On other motors I have wired I run power to the alternator plug but just want to be safe since I am dealing with a more expensive motor and american motor and not Japanese which is what Im used to
