Hello all, i am currently having a little issues with my 97 s14 with RB20DET.
I starting to relocate the fuse box to the trunk so i cut/extend and moved all the wires. I also installed RB20DET using Wiring Specialities brand new wiring harness. The engine would crank but did not turn over, upon troubleshooting i found that i was not getting any spark. I was also not getting the cluster lights but dummy lights were their. So i went ahead a got new coilpack and ignitor just in case.
Also i decided, after trying to figure figure out no power to cluster i decided i wanted to put a stock fusebox harness in. So i found a guy selling a fuse box harness for same year and model (97 se w/ sunroof, a/t)
Today i installed the new harness along with ignitor and coilpack. After getting everything hooked up. i was not able to even get the engine to crank, the ignition relay 2 and accessory relay seemed to be constantly clicking when i was turning the key to start.
So i am really confused as what would be causing this to happen. it was cranking fine with the old fusebox harness.
i got power to the cluster backlight but no power to audio.
Also my car had a Python security/Alarm system hooked up to the old harness. and when i installed the new harness i did not connect the wires to the new harness. As i did plan to get the system replaced with a better one once car is running. So i dont know if that is making it not turn over.
I did research the topic and some point to starter being bad, but it was working fine before.
i would appreciate any help i can get to resolve this issue.
Thanks alot!
