What did you do with your Z today III

GaleForce

I thought you had a back up S/L?

I would like to source out a male and female plug, do a wiring modification... and test a couple of things. I'm not desparate enough to start cutting my wires.

I do, but just wondering wat your thought was. I'm wondering if there are any side effects to the BCM long term.

That's why I'm trying to source out a make and female connector. Then I can install my own wires and play. I'm really interested in seeing what happens when you cut power to the unit while in the unlocked state. The BCM is looking for signals from at least two of the wires... Not sure how it would play out. fritz says it's ok, but it's something I would need to do for myself. I'm not ready to hack up my wiring yet...

Any thoughts of where I could source out the plug ends? A male plug at the very least would work too. Maybe there is a wrecked Z somewhere that I could get the existing plug from? I doubt I'll find one around here, they are not very common.

Bottom line, let's get a plug and take it to the next step.

Indeed. Hummmmm. Not sure where we could source the male connector.. its a PCB mount type too so not sure how clean one can make the harness unless one makes a PCB for it?

I'm going to have to stick my head under the dash and check things out again. The last time I looked was during winter hibernation when I lifted the cover to see what revision S/L I have.

A plug and play unit would be ideal, however for the sake of experimenting, a OEM male plug cut from a totaled Z would be perfect. The chances of me finding a wrecked Z around here is slim to none, the car is just too rare in these parts.
