Ok I went to install my SAFC on my SC400 yesterday. I used the t7-a pinout for of course the lexus/soarer 1uzge world. I found that on my car the wire they call the 12v ignition wire that runs into the ecu has no power. It is a black and red wire located in the very last pin (bottom right) of the third plug. I thought that to be VERY odd and was wondering if any other pin-out locations could be wrong.

oh i salso found that the SAFC i got was junk and doesn't work from the factory....more waiting

When I hooked up my emanage to my 96 sc4 i tapped the black/red wire and worked just fine...

What you could try is tapping the ignition wire from the engine bay rather than the harness... It's a little more work but it should work out just fine.

I found a better ignition wire to tap. I was thinking yesterday that my car has an aftermarket car starter installed and they must have interupted that wire or something.

Ahh that could be the problem then. Hope its working now.
