charge pipe install help

tjnitsche · 01-19-2013, 10:06 AM

I am in the process of installing my ets charge pipe and the IAT sensor is not long enough to get plugged back in...

Has any one come across this or have any solutions?

Could I just add some more wire?

Take a picture and post it. Are you sure you didn't accidentally flip the sensor itself around the wrong way? It becomes a lot harder to plug in it the socket is facing up...

Fixed, the wire was just caught in the harness, once it was free it gave merge extra bit to reach the sensor.

Be careful when disconnecting the vacuum hose from the intake nipple. DO NOT tug too hard, it WILL break.
