Dicktator 60-2 ignition and fuel lights not coming on.

Post by merlinvenn27 »

HI Gents I need some assistance pleaswith. I've recently connected up my 60-2 (brand new) to my polo playa (golf 4 apk engine). I've connected all wires as per wiring diagrams and information I've been seeing here on the forum. The red power light comes on and the fuel relay on the management loom clicks on and off after some time as normal. But the other lights aren't coming on. Is there anything I missed along the way? Power and earth are coming directly from the battery. Thank you

Power and earth from battery is correct.but there also needs to be a power and earth connected to the ignition , so I wired mine to the old wiring on ignition coil 3pin like so else you'll have to find ignition relay and join it from there ImageImage

Okay my engine hasn't got a distributor. It's got a 4 pin coil pack. I've got an ignition supply to the coil and the coil is earthed to the engine block.

I see you say the relay clicks so the pump turns on? Then when you crank nothing happens?

You need to use the 60-2 wire diagram. The one posted is not the correct one.

Confirm if the crank sensor is a magnetic sensor and wired to pins 1 and 11 as per 60-2 pinout diagram.

Is there a startup map loaded into the ecu?

The Golf 4 pin coil uses the wasted spark selection in the main page settings and is wired to the ignition 1 and ignition 2 wires on the pinout plug.

Where are you based?
