Thanks for the heads up. That means this will be a no go for us..... Would have been nice if they would have responded to my inquiry's and let me know this .

Ah I see, ok, a little odd but I suppose that works.
What did you leave for instructions? I see the site lists a few vehicles and such but our situation is a little unique. Did you just give the document provided by ACE to him?

Thank ya!!!!

Exclamation How do i get one???

Has anyone been able to contact ACEngineer lately? Ive been trying to contact him about purchasing a kit, with no response. if anyone has a kit laying around, or would sell it, i am EXTREMELY interested!!!! I am 18, and about to head off to college in a month or so, and my '04 just decided to eat all of its own bearings etc... Considering Im already doing a lt230 regear from 1.22 to 1.667, on 35' tires, i figured i could use the power, and reliability of the LS. At this point i am desperate to get my Disco back on the road.

Question for those of you using the PSI harness:

Wanting to double check, I see TWO ignition power pinouts for our ECU's, One is pinout Blue #75, the other is #19. My psi harness appears to supply power through the 19 pink wire, HOWEVER our instruction manual states power should be tapped from #75 which in my PSIcustom harness is blank...... Is this going to be an issue? Do I need to make a jumper perhaps? I would think there's a fair chance that this ECU will be looking for power in 75 and I'm worried it shouldn't be given power in 19. PSI hasn't been terribly helpful in answering this..... I believe it's the only thing up in the air at the moment on my electronics. It might be fine as is but I don't want to fry anything.

My PSI harness had a single red wire that is supposed to be 12V in the run/start position. I just connected that.

So you had the same situation as me then? 75 was blank on blue and 19 was a pink wire?

I'll see if I have a 12v run/start in red as you state. Do you know the pin # it was on?

Thanks!

I can’t remember where red wire went for sure, but I’m pretty sure it went to the ignition relay on the little fuse box attached to the PSI harness. That was what my PSI manual said to use for start/run 12V wire, so that’s what I used. With everything else hooked up, I can hear the relays click on and the ECU turns on when that wire is connected to 12V.

OK. I guess I'm just concerned because the ECU is looking for power on 75 from what ACE says and it's not gonna get it from this PSI harness...... and it is instead gonna get it elsewhere potentially. I don't wanna fry it etc.
