Hi, This is my first post here. After buying a Black V6 GXL brand new in 2008 and selling it in May this year, I realised I made a mistake and had to have another one. So I just purchased a late 2007 V6 GXL in Silver, low k's etc and I intend to give it the full treatment of goodies this time. It came with a 2 inch suspension lift, a UHF radio and Bridgestone Desert Dueller tyres. Ive had some minor panel damage repaired that was just cosmetic but would have annoyed me for ever. Just fitted a set of 5 BFG KM2 Mud Terrains, 265 70 17's. Bought an Evil bay winch that actually looks pretty good!!! Dual battery setup with a 120ah thumper is ready to go in. Ordered a colour coded ARB Deluxe winch bar, Front and rear Air lockers and just gathered up all the steel required to knock up a set of rock slide type side steps. Waeco slide and drawer system going in the back. She's going to stand out in the crowd but sometimes that's a bad thing.
My question is - has anyone found which wire is between the ECU and the Fuel injection / fuel pump circuit and can be switched without any issues as I would like to use this area to add a little security.
Reason being I had a V6 Holden powered Surf a long time ago and removed a dodgy aftermarket alarm system. I interrupted the fuel injection wiring somehow and trying to get it going was the biggest nightmare I have ever had with anything ever. After I spent around 60 hours tearing out my hair, I exhausted 2 mobile auto electricians who gave up also!!! Google eventually helped me with an expert on a Torana forum steering me right! Amazing!!! It most certainly wasnt going to be knocked off in 30 seconds.
I have heard thieves use a plug in ECU or BCM??? that will bypass the Prado key security etc but I think going between the Engine management system and the Injector circuit will certainly slow em down a bit. I have a wiring diagram that has given me a few ideas but i'm not certain and I dont want to be cutting and rejoining wires if it wasnt the right one.
My apologies for such an essay. Any advice welcomed. Thanks.
