420A Need 1996 ECU Pinout

[Smash_NDash]

Im working on a custom install of my megasquirt using a ecu connector (because I want to run full stand alone but I have to switch back for emissions every year) and I cannot for the life of me find a 1996 ECU pinout.

If anyone has one or knows where I can get one please let me know!

If you have a early model 1996 with single plug ECM, the pin out is about identical to the 1995 ECU. If you have a later model 1996 with the two plug, the pin out is almost the same as the 1997 ECU. Good luck

I saw your post from that in an earlier thread but I need to know whats different/changed if I am going to refer to the 97 diagram without having to go to my car to look.

Since I am building a PnP harness I need to know exactly where each pin is

There weren't any changes to my knowledge. If you find any, report back with them please, but I don't think you will.

2GNT.com - 1997_ECU 2GNT.com - 1998_ECU by looking at the first 10-15 pins it looks like a noticeable difference... looks like 10 or so pins are different between these two diagrams.



SO I would assume that I should use the 97 pinout because its teh closest to the 96 as far as production goes

The 98 chart is inaccurate. The 97-99 pinouts are identical.

thank you! you just solved about 2 weeks of searching and e-mailing folks.

But i do have a follow up question if they are all the same why did howell/AFX offer year specific computers?

I don't know why Howell does a lot of things...
