Maverick loom

The Maverick rad did not fit very well it was just touching the bonnet, so I will use the Navara rad and make a neat metal pipe to run along the top of the rad to create an outlet for the top hose on the other side of the rad.

I removed the wiring loom from the Maverick, wasn't such a bad a job. I just had to keep telling myself that most of the loom will be surplus to requirements and I won't have to find a home for all of it in the Navara. I plan to use just the bits essential to make the engine run, the annoying thing is going to be the NATS system which will mean I have to use more parts of the loom than otherwise. The Maverick accelerator is different, older technology they both do the same thing so they might be interchangeable. Will have to wait and see if the Maverick ECU will recognize it, not that big a job to switch them over if not, plus it will be running by then and I will be in a good mood.




Maverick wiring loom

A few hours and a wiring diagram should see this sorted I will leave every thing attached until it is running and then remove each unused section at a time, I can then adjust the lengths to make a neat fit. I am hoping to connect the oil pressure, temp and fuel filter senders to the Navara ECU but I don't yet know how this will behave, hopefully if it gets the correct information it should think everything's OK.
