Okay guys. Just finished up wiring my ls2 coils. Went to plug in my laptop to change the settings in my aem and it won't connect or notice the usb cable, and my fuel pump doesn't prime, it did before this and the laptop has been plugged into the car numerous times. I used the diagram from aem's website. Its an s13 ka. http://aemelectronics.com/files/instructions/30-6600%20Series%202%20Plug%20&%20Play%20EMS.pdf
Coil triggers:
Coil 1: #1
Coil 2 is #7
Coil 3 is #5
Coil 4: is #25
I used #21 for the ecu ground (sensor ground)
One ground running to the head
And the power is pin #36 which was previously running to a relay for the Hotwire mod
So what gives? What did I miss?

Have you tried to restart you're laptop and AEM unit?
Try the easy stuff first.

break out the volt meter and start double checking your grounds and power.

Hey question for you, did you just splice into the harness or did run a wire direct to the pins? If so where can I get the ecu pins so I can crimp my wire to it?

I spliced into the harness about 3" away from the ecu connector.
Bump, still trying to figure this out.

Do you hear the relay on the AEM harness "click" when you give power to your ignition switch?

You forgot to plug in your coils and left the stock KA spark plugs in instead.

Just did some digging.
Pin #36 needs to be connected for whatever reason, snipped and twisted them together, and now the fuel pump primes. Going to plug my laptop in and see what happens. If it has power, i'll take my power source for the coils from elsewhere.

Anyways, Seems like for whatever reason, pin 36 needs to stay connected to factory settings.
Used pin 28 for power and changed it in the standalone to 12v switched. Now the problem i'm running into is that I have no spark. I have power to the coils, but doesn't seem like its getting signal while cranking.

Do the injectors fire when you spin the distributor?
