Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer

As I started working on this loom recently, wanted to finish the modifications for the LHD application.




Converted the SCS terminal into 2pin AMP connector so that the familiar 'paper clip' method can be used for the diagnosis purpose as well as erasing the ABS error code.

GND cable design changed for LHD application.

Just waiting for the liquid gasket to dry at the sealing plug.

Unlike other types sold on the market, this loom doesn't use any soldering joint. Personally, it's big no-no using soldering method on any wiring connection where it is exposed to vibration and if the parts can't be held securely.
Also, the main power supply has changed for the later spec one body ABS on 99/00 models onwards.
It uses IG2 which means that when you turn the IG key into P3 'Start' position to crank the engine, the power to the ABS will be reset and the ABS light will be off until you release the IG key (back to P2) once the engine has started. The power to the ABS is restored and the ABS light will be On again for about 2sec for light bulb check mode before switching itself off.
Some of the aftermarket looms don't follow this sequence. Not a big problem but better to have the same logic as the OEM installation.

As this loom was originally designed for JDM market, the installation manual is in Japanese but I spent some time writing and updating the manual in English with many photos.
I haven't updated the manual for LHD application as I don't have any ABS photos from LHD NSX but still, it should be enough to support the installation even for the LHD spec.
It will be sent through email.



As snow is forecasted for today, not fancy driving my NSX without snow tyres so probably send the package out to the owner next week.

Done.
