converting B310 auto to 5spd manual

Post by kartboy »

yeah well I know I said I would leave it auto but have put the 5 spd in now.

What I want to know is what is the best way to bypass the inhibitor switch? Have hooked everything up (I think), turn the key and nothing happens so am guessing it will be the inhibitor switch??

thanks

yeah that is what I thought i had to do, anyone know what wires they are on the B310 sunny, the plug for the auto has about 4 wires in it, maybe 5.

If you strip back the two wires that go the inhibiter switch on the trans, they go back to a 6 pin (?) plug on the drivers side front corner of the engine bay. (I think they're blue? but my sunny isn't here atm)
Just join them together, and Robert's your dad's brother in law.
