Can someone tell me where these plug in to pweeeeeeeese :D

iv got 4 connectors left over but..

1 must be for ICV
1 for the THROTTLE
then i haven't got anything plugged in to the ALT
there's a 2 pin connector on the underside of the inlet (on the inlet)
and there's a connection on what look like the oil pump?

also,

the lambda's connect to the connectors on top of the injector plugs dont they?

why dont mine fit in?
the manifold's came with the lamda's fitted, and the loom is an E36 one
but they just dont seem to want to fit?

You should have a 3 pin connector to the idle control valve
a 3 pin connector to the switch on the throttle body
2 pin on M20 temp sensor
2 pin on oil pressure switch (back of oil filter housing)
2 pin for air inlet temp sensor on underside of inlet manifold.

The lambda plugs should fit if they are the ones from a M52, if you have M50 lambdas then they are a much bigger socket similar to the one on the MAF sensor, so they won't fit.

The rear exhaust manifold branch lambda connects to the plug nearest the front of the engine on top and the front manifold branch connects to the plug near the rear of the engine on top.

No connector plugs into the terminal that comes up from the sump unless you added this to the loom, so leave that disconnected

I think iv got the connections sorted :mad: cheers Lee I think i was having a blond moment lol

right.. lambda's

look identical to your's,

they look like they want to fit, but there not going in...

the connections that the lambda's plug in to,
have a sort of bit of pointy plastic, so whatever plugs in to them can only go one way, if you know what i mean?

but there isn't a recess bit on the lambda's

You have the wrong ones if they wont plug in, the number on the plug and socket need to match up
