Emanage Ignition Help

[Fluke]

I finally managed to get the Emanage blue hooked up to my ECU and have a couple of problems. Firstly, it will only fire up if I remove the Emanage ignition harness. I originally cut ignition 1 and 2 on the harness and connected them as per the instructions, but it won’t fire up. The instructions say:

Ignition 1 - blue/white wire to ECU
blue/black wire to Sensor

Ignition 2 - Orange/white wire to ECU
Orange/black wire to Sensor

Am I missing something? Am I correct in saying that there are only 2 ignition points on the ECU harness? The second problem I have is that the car will start up and then immediately cut out, can anyone tell me what the problem might be? Everything is fine once I remove the Emanage.

BTW - my car is a 1997 Mk1 1.8.

I forgot to add that my pots are set to 3 A 3 as its a MAF.

I disconnect the wiring to the MAF and that allows the engine to run. I have larger injectors to go on so I take it I will need to run the MAF to the Emanage some how? Does anyone have any idea why I cant use the ignition harness?

I will also want to data log using my AEM wide band how do I connect to the emanage?

First off what kind of injectors do you have installed right now? And what are your factory injectors rated at? Next lets take a look at your parameter settings...You need to input the OEM value in the injection correction field 1 and new injector value in injector field 2.

You mentioned a to ecu connection. You should have a from connection as well. I believe injector 1 and 2 should be an in and out.

Injectors are the factory standard at the moment - 254cc.

Do you mean ingnition 1 and 2? These are in and out the factory harness wires were cut and from the emanage ignition harness 1 wire goes to the ECU side and the other wire goes to the sensor side - same goes for the second factory ignition harness wire.

The car will start and idle correctly without changes to the factory ignition harness and the MAF wires.

Hmm interesting try connecting just the maf now and try to start it. If it starts you will have narrowed the problem down to ign wiring. If not then the wiring for maf could be backwards.

What is the ignition jumper setting set to on the emanage. I believe one setting is for 5 volts and the other for 12, it needs to be set to whatever your car is. I remember I had to change my setting to 12v.

The car will not start with the MAF wiring connected. When you say the wiring may be backwards do you mean the wire that goes to the ECU side should go to the sensor side?

I will check the Ign wiring at the emanage plug end, as I have found on other forums that sometimes Greddy wires them up wrong.:eek:

I still cant get the emanage to run with the MAF wire connected or it to run with the ignition harness wired in. I hooked my lap top up and made sure evrything was zero'd and that the main unit was updated. I am using version 1.49 of the software.

Does anyone have any idea of what else maybe wrong?:confused:

[Accord2nrz]

Im pretty sure they're wired up wrong. Try switching them putting the one you have to the sensor now to the ecu. Greddy has a habit of wiring them up incorrectly.

EDIT: is your car anything similar to a 97 miata? if so take a look at this pinout diagram and see if it helps you out.

My car has exactly the same as the one in the link. I have checked the emanage harness wiring and they appear correct. The emanage wiring guide I am using is this one:-

Does this look correct?

This is what I get when I load up the support tool'

I just cant seem to run the ignition harness and am at a total loss as to why its not working. I've gone through and checked every wire a dozen times and gone over the ECU pinouts countless times.

It shows your ignition output voltage is 5volts. Maybe it should be 12 volts. I believe you need to change a jumper setting to put the emanage ignition output to 12 volts. I did a quick search and it seems that older vehicles and some domestics use the 5 volt ignition system, You've seemed to do everything except change to the 12volt rating.

I concur with the matrix. sorry about the late response.

I have tried every concievable combination of jumper 1 and 2 - even leaving them open, and it just wont start. I have used a plug tester and am not getting a spark no matter what I do. Everything falls apart the minute I connect the ignition wires up.

I can connect to the emanage and change what ever I need to, I have even loaded a base map.
