Thread: How To: Build an offboard PCM interface

As far as leaving wires in, or taking them out... To each their own. There is no wrong way. God bless America, we get to do what we want. The only reason to pull them out, is to not have to look at them. Aesthetics. That is exactly my reason. If someone wants to leave them in and just cut them short, I'm not mad.

Tell me more about this 4 diode rectifier thing.

Well, I think I got it. I used some different colors, but I managed to keep the grounds black and the 12v+ red. All my data lines are green and my switched 12v is purple.




Thanks Scotty!!

Bill,
I ended up using the hammer and punch seen in the picture. Same thing I tried before with no success. I guess I just needed to hear someone say that was okay. I wasn't being aggressive enough. I tried using a pick and pliers to get that washer off. Lets just say, I'm better with a hammer!
