Getting prepared to install a Torqbyte PM3
« on: July 30, 2017, 10:31:25 pm »
A few days ago I picked up my 40amp fuse holder, wire, and connectors in prep for the Torqbyte PM3. Going to get the power wire ran from the battery to the fuel tank-pump under the rear seat, leaving out the fuse of course, so I can install the PM3 when it arrives. The PM3 will double the amps driving the tank pump so the thing will stop starving itself. Check out the gauge in wire difference from the oem PulseWidthModulator and the PM3 PowerModule in the pic I included of another person's install.




How it should look when done:

Pics to show what I got done yesterday:
1) ...connected 40A fuse holder to the "power bar", farthest to the right, in front of fuse panel under the hood
2) ...routed wire in corrugated tubing and fed under battery in the three clip channel with other harness to the rubber grommet and harness at the firewall
3) ...where it comes through into the footwell. No, I didn't leave the wire exposed in the footwell like in the pic...took the pic right after feeding it through.

I didn't take a pic of where it ends up, but it is currently under the rear seat with corrugated tubing covering all of what leaves the rear side panel. No, there is no fuse in the holder yet.
