Would injectors work with painless wiring system

I just bought a 1985 2.8l v6 Camaro and looked under the hood and saw that most of the wiring was shot. So I am going to buy the painless wiring switch panels .I just wanted to know if I use the switch panels for the fuel pump and ignition system would the fuel injectors automatically kick in or if not what do I need to do.

I'm not sure you understand the purpose of those switch panels, They don't replace the underhood wiring harness, at least not the engine control harness.

What's bad about your existing harness?

It looks like a family of rats got in there and chewed up most wires some wires are corroded and most relays are corroded

I was thinking I could just send power to the fuel pump and power to the ignition system to start the engine, but without the kit the when I turn the key on the engine does spin over.

Re: Would injectors work with painless wiring system

Since this is posted in a few forums, I will lock this one.

Next time post in a single forum.

You'd be better off repairing what is there, than trying to replace it with something completely different.
