Where this comes from
Only FuelTech's own documents. Pin names and notes are written exactly as FuelTech writes them.
FuelTech manual for this ECU (harness connections table)
FuelTech FT450 / FT550 / FT600 manual, chapter 9: the old harness wire by wire
FuelTech connector drawing in the same manual, read by eye
How we checked it
- We start from the pin table in FuelTech's manual for this ECU: pin, wire colour and function.
- Every pin is read again in a second FuelTech document: its harness manuals, which list each ECU pin with its wire colour, or for the FT700 its quick reference. A script compares them pin by pin.
- A pin is only shown when the second document gives the same wire colour and function. FuelTech names its general-purpose wires by colour and number (Blue #1 is blue output 1), so the number has to match too.
- Labels, notes and wire colours are written exactly as FuelTech writes them.
Where FuelTech's documents disagree
MAIN 13: FuelTech's FT550 manual (chapter 9.2, the old FT400 harness wire by wire) leaves this wire out. The FT400 manual lists it in its pin table and on its connector drawing ('MAP Signal Output - Yellow/Red').
AUX 6: the FT400 manual's table prints 'Auxiliary output #7' on this pin. Its wire number, its own connector drawing and FuelTech's FT550 manual all say 'Auxiliary output #6'. Shown: 'Auxiliary output #6'.
AUX 8: the FT400 manual's table prints 'Auxiliary output #7' on this pin. Its wire number, its own connector drawing and FuelTech's FT550 manual all say 'Auxiliary output #5'. Shown: 'Auxiliary output #5'.
AUX 11: FuelTech's FT550 manual (chapter 9.2, the old FT400 harness wire by wire) leaves this wire out. The FT400 manual lists it in its pin table and on its connector drawing ('Throttle or Pedal Ground Output - Green/Black').
