Well i recently slammed my car on my new coilovers, and was getting some really bad rubbing from the fender-well covers. so i lifted my car up to find out that, on the driver side the tire had rubbed through to the wire harness. so i raised my car up some to see if that would help much. so i took if for a drive and went to u-turn at the dead end...........lots of horrible rubbing sounds as i turned around and as i finished out the car died.

the tire eat more of the harnesss and expossed several wires. Now the car wont start. it cranks, but wont go over.

WTF do i need to do.......please help.

try electrical taping the wires again and find a way to relocate the harness. S13s require fender removal and some zipties...it may apply the same to you

I'd just say cut the bad parts, and solder new wire in.
unless you want to get a new harness, unlikely.

then relocate your harness, probably like what ^ said.

yea ended up shorting the fuel pump fuse. got it replaced by a 15amp for the moment. got all the wires separated and taped up

got the driver side harness tucked..........curious if i should tuck passanger side as well.

pbcstylez · 09-14-2007, 12:36 PM

most critical is the drivers side, do the passenger if you have time

qwikspool · 09-14-2007, 02:14 PM

electrical tape would help, just try to rewire that thing.

drifting_changed_mylife · 09-14-2007, 02:29 PM
