Hello Guys,

I know this might sound like a daft question but im hungover so please bare with!

Engine put into a 1.4 8v Furio SHELL to VTS 1.6 16v. Never had the original engine in so unsure of what ECU it had.

Car is a 2003 Furio, so i assume without checking the pin-out using my tone & amp that it would have originally been a 3 plug ecu (later type) going off this guide

The Engine i've dropped in is as single plug ECU.

Everything seems to be okay, but no Rev Counter and no Speedometer. Therefore, as it's starting and doing everything else i can only assume that the loom pinouts are correct - as things like Starter, Ignition Live etc wouldn't be on the same pins either.

Basically what im saying is, am i right to think that the issue is not a loom pinout one but instead either my clocks, fuses, a broken wire or sensor. i am going to tone and amp the car tomorrow to trace cables if needed! I have used wiring diagrams etc before to splice a loom so if that's what's called for i will do it.

Mystery solved. Engine Loom plug is for Early 3-Plug Type whereas the Chassis is the Later 3-Plug type

Yes I had a feeling the car harness was a crossover one when I saw your post on Facebook.

Easy fix then.
