Re wiring TAC unit - help ?!
Hi chaps
I've had to fit a new TAC Connector (the existing one was damaged)
But having now refitted the connector (EFI with the pigtail) and carefully matching wire to wire (though the 2 blues are a similar color) I'm now getting a P1518 code error.
Obviously one the new connections isn't solid. But the main problem I found was there's so little room under the car and there's very little play from that wiring loom.
Is there any other way of getting at that loom or getting me more play ?
Really appreciate any help on this - spent 6 hours wiring and rewiring today trying to solve it.

Pull off the fender (passenger) and remove the screws that hold down the clamps (7mm).

Hi
I'm still getting a P1518 code (PCM to TAC Module Serial Data Circuit)
I've triple checked my wiring and everything seems OK
I've reset the codes - but instantly comes back in
Am i missing something ?
The big problem is that I'm in the UK otherwise I'd just try another TAC module. I guess there's always a chance I've spiked the module itself somehow
UPDATE
Problem solved. I had the 2 pinks mixed up. I'm sure i'd checked and double checked anyway sorted now
Many thanks
