does it matter wear i add this resistor? couldn't i added it to the orange body plug down by the passenger side kick panel instead?

Yes, just cut the wire and add the resistor in line.

I wouldnt think itd matter as long as you make sure the resistor is wired into the wire that provides the signal to the cluster. I just did it close to the plug that attaches to the cluster. It takes all of 5 minutes to take the cluster out and you dont have to get under the dash.

thanks guys! i will do this as soon as possible. just been so busy to get to radio shack to buy this resistor. i hope i can just buy one. i dont wanna get a whole 10 pack lol

a pack shouldn't be too expensive. you're probably looking at a couple dollars

It's $1.19 for a 5 pack...i think you can find that much change under your seats

Can anyone confirm what wattage is needed?

Id have to look at the package and see what I bought. Although I only remember radioshack having only one variation of the 330ohm resistor, in the actual store.

Ok so I tried to ground the brown/ black wire and it didn't work so I'm gonna try the resistor method tomorrow and see what's gonna happen

Sorry for your headaches man. Post up your findings after your resistor is added. We will have our fingers crossed.

If you guys weren't half assing your swaps this wouldn't be a problem. You wire the 1 wire temp sensor exactly how it is factory and this works. The cluster also has a ground wire that grounds through the engine harness. Leave it in the stock location when wiring since there is no need for this to be removed and it works. Just fine. Like normal. This is really not that hard.

That's a lot of info vrank thanks

This^^^^^
But he might have a broken wire or the wire is not in the correct pin.
Do you still have your stock 2jz harness? if you do just chase the sending unit wire from the connector to the body plug and see if its going in the correct location.

No I have a soarer 5speed harness Quick. Im going to try and tap into an actually ground wire.
I'm feeling confident the ground to the abs ecu isn't working

I know!

Where your stock ge harness? do you still have it?
