Started working out the loom today. This is the full vehicle loom that came with the new engine. It’s a full GTI engine and interior loom, including an alarm/immobiliser. Not shown is the OMEX engine loom that I have test fitted to the engine in the engine stand. There isn’t much in this picture that will have any use to my setup, but it has confirmed the wire that controls the tacho/rev counter.
I’ve already partially stripped lightened my interior loom, but once I strip the interior out I’ll remove a few more wires and gubbins that are now redundant. I’ve decided that I want to relocate the battery and engine fuseboxes to the interior before I do the other works so that way I can isolate any changes issues resulting from this on the electrics from the engine swap. Need to get a few bits and check a few things out.
