    TripMinder Wiring

    Hi guys,

    I have a TripMinder and the donor lead that I'd like to put into my 87.

    I read how you have 1 or 2 grounds depending what year the unit is from. That's easy. Then you have an always hot wire, and a keyed power. A background illumination wire.

    BUt it read like there were a couple of wires I need to tape in elsewhere.

    So does anyone have the diagram to show what the wires are on the connector for the TripMinder, as well as, where I could tap the other wires into? I'd love to have this in the 87 Colony Park.

      i did put that in my 85 and have the diagrams some where. More to follow.

      You car has EFI i hope and not a VV?

      With that being a 87 it should be mostly pre wired. You will find a connector taped to the main harness top of dash and to the right of the speedo. This will contain all the feeds you will need - dont get this and the digital clock connector mixed up.. You will need to build about a 8 inch extension. Have a look. I think you might be able to find it if you remove the clock and put you had up in there.

          Everything to do with interior and body electrical including headlights and tail lights. CFI specific discussions and AC/heating systems.

            Just FYI I rerouted the wire and thus no extension was needed. This was an 89.
