Is there a difference in the 04-05 ACM module pin layout vs an 06.

I don't even know if I am asking the right question but if someone could help shine some light I would appreciate it.

What could I do to get the right one?

Thanks!

 

i remember something like the two plugs are switched for 04-05 vs 06....

i had to customize something for an 06 coz i couldn't get the plug in a Canadian ECU

 

Brent, no the only difference between the 04-05 and 06 is the wires that you have to cut and tap into for the four wires. The plugs for the ecu and the acm plug right in regardless of the year its what the installer has to do that can be done differently depending on the year. It is all outlined in the instructions so they shouldnt be having a problem. Let me know how it works out or if you have any other questions, Ryan

As always you are the man! Thanks again for all the help!

 

No problem, sure your itching to drive that bad boy!!! Ive got my bike sittin in the garage right now just picked her up last night GOD i wanna ride that f@cker right now. Workin for a living SUCKS!!!!

 

I am so jealous of you bent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Pics of the bikes?

I know you are about warn thin with me but I went by the shop to see what they were talking about. Everything is in, only hold up is this ECU ACM thing.

I did not believe them when they told me but the ACM can not plug into the ECM via the A31 because the slots don't match up. When I say the slots dont match up one slot is high and one is low and with my ECU you physically can't plug it in. I know it sounds silly.

Is there maybe something we are missing?

 

Sorry about the pics I am fixing them right now

 

Brent i am assuming you have an 06, the A and E connectors are the same for 04-06. The only difference in wiring is the D5 pin and C5 which is the map sensor. The E connector for the 04-05 is for the injector circuits and the A connector for the 06 is for the injector circuit. There should be no reason that the plug will not match up to the ecu. Does the male side of the plug (the factory plug for connector A) plug into the female side of the wiring adapter for the acm? And the wiring adapter male side not fit into the ecu? If so take a picture of the male side of both plugs so i can see the difference in the connector. I know its hard over the computer but i will try to help the best i can.

 

I guess my car is just strange?

Anyone else with an 06 post pics of the ACM harness?

 

What's your maufacture date...

Maybe Acura changed the harness plugs in late 2006 for some reason.

More concerningly, what are you gonna do?

 

Brent, how did you make out? Didnt get a phone call so i hope all is good and they arent making you wait till tommorrow

 

Competch, RYAN97812, the tech who is installing it, and a third party acura mech say it will plug in fine once they cut the plastic so it fits.

Hopefully I will get the car back tomorrow

Comptech said they have seen the samething twice before from different acura dealers installing it. Both time they cut the plasit to fit. Fortunately the pin layout is the same.

Keeping my fingers crossed.

 

It was already 5 here by the time I called them back. Thank you again for all of the help.

 

No problem brent, you will be rewarded with your patience tomm. Feel free to call with any questions.

 

thats what i did.. i have an 06.. i used a razor blade to cut that little piece of plastic and everything works =)

 

Great news! It works!

They are getting the car cleaned up and I am picking it up at 2!

Car Dynoed 28- something, 75 degrees 65% humidity

Can't wait til 2!

 

28-? Any other free flowing mods?

5AT? I was hoping you'd break 300...

 

Me too. 286

It is 5AT with ATLP quads and UR pulley.

Got the car back but have not been able to get on it because it is pouring down rain.

 

Your going to love the whine! It's addicting. 286 sounds good for an AT with those mods.

 

congrats on the S/C....man i cant wait til there is one for the tl-s......

 

Brent, told you it would work out, give me a call and let me know how you like it. Im off to insure, register and title the bike now. Need to get my mind off of not having the s/c anymore LOL good luck bro
