Im in the process of locating my pcm for my ls1 swap to the inside of the car. The problem is that the pcm doesnt reach to the factory 3rd gen computer location. The wires are to short and dont reach. Im sure some have ran into this problem. I was wondering what you have done to make it work? Please dont mind the dusty engine bay and paint.

 

Lengthen the wires. I had Pocket make me a harness and thats what he did for me.

 

i lengthened my wires so i could follow the factory route. I also grabbed a bulkhead connector from the junkyard so I could gut it and run everything through the factory spot in the passenger footwell

 

Lengthen the wires and/or move the hole closer to the engine

 

Factory route and location..

 

LOL:

 

since i am no longer gonna have heat or ac i am gonna mount right where the blower motor sat

 

Why not heat? Gets mighty cold in IL

 

mine's in the factory location, even using the factory plastic bracket which I trimmed to make it fit

 

So if I drill a new hole closer to the engine then the pcm will fit in the factory location? Also if lengthening the pcm wiring, should I use the soldering method or the heat shrink butt connector method? This is going to be time consuming!

 

solder! its more reliable and less likely to cause issues. plus it will keep down the pysical size of the wiring bundle.

 

Up to you to redrill a hole. Id lengthen the wires since the hole is already there

DO NOT USE BUTTCRIMPS FOR PCM WIRES EVER. Solder is the only option you should consider for this

 

Extended 3 feet sits hidden beneath my 4th gen dash

 

where do you guys get the extra wire to lengthen it? another harness?

 

I mounted mine in the thirdgen location and used extra wire from one of the many harnesses I've scrounged.

 

Why no A/C either really gets hot too.

 

sounds like ill be lengthening these wires....

 

does anyone know what the metri pack terminal part number is that is in the pcm blue and red connectors? I have an idea........
