CD/CE9A Early EVO, EVO 1 2 3 electrical circuit diagrams

This site may earn a commission from merchant affiliate links, including eBay, Amazon, and others.

I see more EVO 1, 2, 3 in North America lately.
The engine and drivetrain are very similar to DSM/GVR4, so I think there is no problem to find info for repairs, but I see some people are struggling with electrical issues because of a lack of info. It seems there is not many FSM shared on the internet or I'm not sure if they even exist in English.

I have the factory electrical circuit diagrams. But those are paper books and in Japanese. I decided to make it as a PDF file little by little while staying home due to the covid-19 mess, but I would take long to complete since I need to translate from Japanese to English. So if there is someone who really needs some diagram as soon as possible, just let me know. I would take a pic of the specific diagram you need and upload it in this thread to share.

I will post each time when I complete each section/chapter.

It's for EVO 2, but I think almost the same as EVO 3 and I believe the most of part can be used for EVO 1, too.
I tried to pick up only the EVO's infos but some diagrams are shared with 4G9, so just follow the one that says 4G63.
Please excuse any errors/typos in translation, if there is.

Note : I do not take any responsibility for any damage or loss caused through these infos.

I haven't had time to make more Japanese to English translated version, but I have scanned all of them already. So if you don't mind in Japanese and are looking for specific diagram, feel free to ask me.

Besides the diagrams above, I have diagrams below in Japanese. If you need some, please PM me and let me know which one you need. I can send it to you in full size.

By any chance do you have any of the fuse diagrams? im mainly looking for the fuel pump relay...

Download the PDF files in post #2 and post #6 "MPI/Engine Circuit Diagram" and "All Harness/Connector Numbers". Those show the fuel pump circuit and where the fuel pump relay is (In the manual, it's called "Engine control relay" and the connector number is C-01)
And as for the fuse diagram, what exactly you need to know? (Yes I have all fuse diagram but in Japanese)

Ok sweet ill download # 2 & 6. As for the fuse diagrams I was mainly looking for anything fuel related but it would be good to have them anyway. I appreciate the quick reply! I have been having issues with my Evo 2 and recently replaced the fuel pump, car ran great for a whole day then back to the same symptoms as before so now I'm going to start pulling fuses again.
 
Fuel Pump Relay (or MPI Control Relay or Engine Control Relay) is located behind/below the Stereo center console area on it's own, and has a 8 pin connector on it. Pin 7 is ignition power, Pin 5 is ECU pin to control relay on/off, Pin 1 is relay output power supply to the fuel pump which goes to pin 2 of the fuel pump connector. Also check your earthing on pin 1 of the fuel pump connector. That's really all there is to the fuel pump.

Also these cars have notoriously thin wiring for the fuel pumps which struggles to supply good power. If you've upgraded fuel pump I suggest running a separate upgraded power wiring and using an extra relay to control it via original wiring.

@DSMPT thanks for this info. Could you provide me schematics of central door locking and a/c heater unit.
I'm having some trouble with my fan.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks a million bro!

I managed to fix my ventilation problem without but now I can sort out my remote central locking problem.
 
Do you happen to have the meter circuit diagrams?
Here you go. Please check the attached PDF file.
I combined below :
4-41_Meter Circuit
4-42_Fuel/Brake/Oil Pressure/Seat Belt Warning Light Circuit
4-43_Fuel/Brake/Oil Pressure/Seat Belt Warning Light Circuit

Hey boss, I'm not sure if you are still active but I wanted to see if you had the pages for the gauge cluster wiring? And actually, whatever you have wiring wise, id love to have them all for my personal collection. I couldn't find a service manual to save my life for my 2 when I lived in Japan from 2016-2021 and I can't believe you have one. I am trying to wire up all my lights for my Haltech IC-7 at the moment.

Do you by any chance have a google drive link with all the documents you have so far? Sorry if i'm being greedy but this is digital gold at this point haha.

You can download the one above (in post #17). That's the part for the gauge cluster. But still in Japanese.

I will try to merge all the pages (in Japanese) and try to upload here in some way.

If not I'll gladly take the full files on google drive. It's easy to create a folder then just share the link to that specific one. Either way I am very greatful and I'm still wondering how you managed to get your hands on a manual. It's fine if its in Japanese because google translate does wonders plus I still have japanese contacts that I can ask for help if I absolutely need it.

Yeah if I can't upload here, I would do that.

I still sometimes find one for sale in Japan. This factory service manual is the same as the one in the link below.

 
Yeah I just got this one because it was $11 and can't hurt.


I really do appreciate it, sources are limited on these. I'm actually trying to install an MCR 200A Alt on mine right now.

I just merged all pages. You should be able to review or download it from the Dropbox link in the link below.

Hey man by chance did you figure what the pin out numbers were for the dash ? I’m looking at doing same with my ic-7
