Extra plug after fitting replacment engine

Post by bootie3367 »

Help needed.
I fitted a replacement engine (1043) in my CL.
Came to connect all the plugs and found an extra one. On my original loom, the 4 pin plug that goes to one side of the SPI system came directly from the loom. When I went to plug it in I found one already in there, coming from the small loom on the engine.

Can anyone help please

Well after trying, we discovered that the plug from the existing loom did not want to play and the one on the engine was the one that had everthing running sweet, strange that but hey, it works. All I have to do now is remove the old plug and tidy up the wiring.
