Which wires need swapping? 1228746 to 1227747

I just realized the computer on my TBI must have been changed because it reads 1227747 on the computer not 1228746. From what I just read on BMmonteSS's thread he said if you use that computer you have to change some wires around. I'm currently bidding on a 1228746 on ebay so that I can replace it with the correct ECM. In the main time I'm curious the difference between the two. If I were to stick with the 7747 what pins would have to repin? Does anyone have a diagram of it?

That link only talks about how much longer the harness is and how much different but no one explains the difference. Also it's 8747 not 7747 like mine. Not sure if they are the same or different but mine is 7747 not 8747.

A3 canister purge
C1 air converter solenoid
C8 psps
C12 mat sensor

The few things that are different aren't worth worrying about. All the important stuff is exactly the same. It looks like a direct swap to me.

Re: Which wires need swapping? 1228746 to 12287747

Are those wiring diagrams for 1228747? EDIT: Nevermind I see they are named 7747...

7747 would be a better chioce the 8747... but 8746 is still well supported $61 and has MAT. 7747 does not...

IIRC I have plugged in 8746 to 7747 harness and ran, but don't remember, it should throw a code for MAT.

Now your confusing me? Your title says 1228747? Differant ECM then 1227747. All wiring diagrams for 1227747 are at:

Actually it said 12287747 I'm not even sure how that 8 slipped in there. I never pay attention to the first numbers anyways. I always look at the last four which should have given it off. lol No worries that was my bad for not paying attention but I fixed it.
