Well I just finished getting everything buttoned up with my NA-T... But I have a slight problem.. Go to turn the key.. nothing! Go to try my turn signals.. nothing.

The car was originaly an 88 NA 5spd... What I am using is an 88 turbo m/t ecu with an 88 turbo auto harness... The turbo motor and the w58.

I have several wires left over on the harness around the tranny, and I haven't plugged in the reverse lights since I'm probably going to have to splice it in.

I have a feeling it's an issue with the neutral/clutch safety switch. How does the ecu know if the clutch is in? Is that part of the body harness or the ecu harness? Also, since it's an auto harness, do I need to jumper the neutral safety switch?

Yes, you need to jumper the neutral safety switch. There should be a plug near your tranny that has a large black wire and black/white wire on it. If you jump them, then the car should crank. Of course, it could be a number of other problems too, but you do need to do that for sure. Please double-check that you're looking at the right wires by checking the diagrams before going and jumping anything :)

ok cool that's what I was thinking...

But since I'm using a M/T ecu does it still have the imput for the neutral safety switch? Would I be better off using the Auto ecu?

Edit:

Is this how I am supposed to jumper it so that the ecu thinks the vehicle is in park?
