I just did a Auto to 5 speed conversion. I got it all hooked up ready to....so I thought. Turned the key nothing. I have the neutral safety switch locked into the correct position ( basically by passing it ). i do not have the the other switch above the gas pedal fully on yet. I have the cplastic that the clutch cable rides on, but not the other side of it that hits the other switch. On my tranny I have two wiring harnesses. One on the side with 4 wires, and one close to the top with two wires. i am guessing one maybe reverse lights and the other that neutral switch. Since this car was auto it does not have a harness to hook it into. Is there a way to bypass that, or am i not correct what it is.Please, any help you can give. I have put in many hours since friday, and am desperate. THANKS

what year car ?

How did you bypass the ecm ?

For an A9L computer ground pin 30 (light blue w/ yellow stripe) to tell the ecm
the tranny is in neutral.

the computer was never connected. It is an 86. The computer was disconnected when I got it.

Your automatic car had a jumper for the neutral safety switch from the factory. If it is not jumpered or the swiotch in place, no crank. Black connector, red wire with light blue stripe.

Yeah man, what he said. You're not sending 12v to the "S" or "I" (or BOTH!) terminals on the solenoid. Bottom line.

hello. Well i got it. i ripped the harnes out of the other car and then searched for the same color wires in the old auto. sure enough i found them hidden tucked away behind the stereo. car starts and runs beautiful. now if i could only get this little plastic gear looking thing on the rod behind the quadrent, i'd have a clutch pedal.
