This video explains splicing the connectors all together after cutting each sensor pigtail off, I have made a more updated video below leaving them mostly intact. Updated Video Here: • Making A Standalone TD... Donate Here: / tdiswaps
Thank you for sharing this video. I am doing a postal jeep with a BHW and Chevy automatic for my wife to use on her mail route. Hoping to at least double the 10 mpg she gets with the 305 in it now.
Hi, thanks for sharing, this makes the wiring situation look so much more simpler ... I will be doing PD swap in my mk1 caddy soon, just want to know if you maybe have a link to the wiring diagram you used.
If you can get on Facebook and search the group "TDI Swapped Trucks" they have a files section with all the wiring diagrams. facebook.com/groups/291980407818664/files/files
Hi, thanks for this video, I like it your method of building the harness from scratch. I was thinking this would be the way to go if you were pulling the engine and parts needed to make it run at the you pull it salvage yard. Pull and snip snip then take it all home! Ross
Thanks for sharing this valuable information!! I hope to do one of these swaps one of these days. I can't recall if you said on your previous videos but what trans adapter did you do for this chevy swap?
This was from diesel conversion specialists, but in this application the TD conversions kit would have helped firewall clearance, this adapter is only 1" thick vs 2" for the TD conversions kit
What, if anything, are you doing about the VSS? Do the PD motors required a VSS to run properly? I’m planning on a BRM into my Comanche, so your video will come in handy. Thanks!
It's easier to explain what is needed to run, everything but the crank, cam, injectors, fuel temp and coolant sensor are deleted off then engine, then there's just the map and alternator plugs off the engine.
Yes I did stop the music in my videos since then, I felt bad for me being such a dry talker but you are right music doesn't help! Glad to share the info though and thanks for watching!
OBD2 only needs power/ground/and the k line for communication, but there are 2 grounds on the VW one so I spliced those together, but 3 wires going to 4 pins is all you need
@@TDISwaps on a serious note, thank you for the information extremely valuable what a pain it is to find a damn brm pin out. Fuck track wiring diagrams and Bentley manuals for not including an ecm pin out.
