  • well i cant find this anywhere so...MSD!

    I need the wiring diagram for a 3.4L MSD DIS-4 Install.

    the Technical Database..i think thats where it is... has the one for the 3.8, but not the 3.4.

    I FINALLY GOT AN MSD!! :-D but i want to install it like right now, but dont know how..the instructions are actually pretty straight forward, but id like to do it right the first time. anyway..

    thanks

    It's different? A coil pack is a coil pack.

      yes. a coil pack is a coil pack. however, the ignition system in a 3.8 differs from a 3.4 there are different sensors and different wirings for those sensors as well as different wiring that goes to the ignition module. I cant use the wiring harness for the 3.8 as it would be wrong.

      i would get lots of misfires and other bad things going that route.

      p.s. for everyones fyi - i found the wiring diagram i needed. took a lot of searching. but. anyway...

          CALL MSD!
          There is a wiring diagram some where around on the board but it is wrong, you have to call MSD! The instructions that come with it don't work for our cars and there isn't a correct diagram online anywhere that I know of (I only found 1 for the 3.4) so just call them! It's a free call, takes 5 minutes, and they will tell you how to wire it correctly!

              Let me see if my dad has another number for MSD, he's a certified MSD something [img]tongue.gif[/img]
              If not I will go try to make a diagram off my car for you ok?
              It's just hard for me to make the diagram because all my wires are covered and half-way hidden hehe.

                  ok well my dad isn't home and I can't get to my wires right now, they're inside of a wire loom that is taped and zip-tied up so I am going to go to kragens and get some electrical tape cause I don't have any here and see if I have any zip ties then I can safely open the wireloom, otherwise if I leave it untaped and unziped I could have wires getting caught in my belt [img]smile.gif[/img]

                      Ok here we go.
                      I just got what was connected to my coil packs, I think there are a few wires that don't go to anything and probably a ground wire or 2, but I am guessing this is the biggest deal right here. If there are extra wires that you don't know where they go, tell me what color they are and I will go look for them.

                      Now this is from my point of view, so if you have the coil interface units already installed on your car, this is going from LEFT to RIGHT (driver side to passenger side).

                      For the CIU on coil pack 2/5:
                      White*: Goes to 2 Black/Red wires
                      Black*: Goes to 2 red wires
                      Black: Yellow
                      White: Black/Yellow

                      For the CIU on coil pack 3/6:
                      White: Black/Green
                      Black: Green
                      Black: Goes with the 2 red wires from Black* above
                      White: Goes with the 2 Black/Red wires from White* above

                      For the CIU on coil pack 1/4:
                      White: Black/White
                      Black: White
                      Black: Goes with the 2 Red wires from Black* above
                      White: Goes with the 2 Black/Red wires from White* above.

                      See the first one is a bastard one, which is what was giving us trouble... it's backwards from the other 2. That is probably why yours is sputtering because you have them all uniform... try this and let me know how it works.
