A lil help..........Turbo related.

solidus

Went to check on the car to see for myself this morning. It may not be quite as bad as I thought. I asked them to show me the burnt wire they spotted and was expecting the turbo to be removed. The turbo was still mounted but I could see the melted wire casing. It was actually in a spot where the harness had split and the heat sleeve left about a 1 inch gap uncovered. It appears closer to the heat wrapped manifold than the turbo but either way the plastic on the outside is clearly melted. The next thing is significant. I was really digging with questions about how it happened asking about smells or sounds. They just described the tach , speedo and the oil pressure and temp gauges just going blank. I needed to get my registration out of the car and asked them to lower the lift, so when they did I open the door and notice the clutch light on , the interior lights and the nav system active. I was and asked them about it. They told me pretty much matter fact , the car starts and runs just the tach isn't working or the mph. Then it made sense to me that the oil pressure gauge and the oil temp gauge weren't working ( AFR gauge and Greddy Boost controller were working) they were wired to the factory harness for power and ground using the oem gauge connector. Then they started the car and sure as **** , it comes on and purrs but nothing in the cluster works other than the engage the clutch light and the security light. So my Turbo blanket will be here today or tommorow and they'll be looking at the harness later today or tommorow. I don't think now that I'm ECU screwed that's a plus.
