Default double checking does this look right(wiring)

Finishing up wiring the kit tomorrow couple more wires to go just making sure this looks right. I'm at work so my resources are far as sites i can get on are limited, actually ls1tech is one of the few camaro sites i can get to(including sponsors)

That looks pretty good to me. Basically the exact way I wired up my kit on my stang. Just make sure that all the connections are good and that you find good solid grounds to use. I even with above and beyond on my car and soldered all the connections and shrink tubed them, makes me feel better knowing all my connections are solid and waterproof. If you want added assurance I suggest doing the same thing.

Looks good to me as far as I can tell. A couple things I would do, run purge on it's own circuit, though a low amp purge noid draws little amperage. Either way use a fuse on the purge and/or switched 12v. Also, do like tording suggested, wire it up with care and caution, a good job is key to longevity without problems. Good luck.

ok ran into one question om my nitrous outlet window switch which color am i hooking to the fpss. I am guessing the red wire the typically goes to the power switch since i will be using the interface to turn on and the pink will tap into 86 or would be the other way around red into the 86 and pink to the fpss

+1 on running the purge on it's own relay. It appears that the way you have it wired, the purge will only work at WOT.

No nitrous should spray but you also dont have to have the car running just the key on. Ray is already working on your wiring question and he shoudl have a response here in a little bit for you so i'd figure i'd answer this question now.

Here is what I have for your wiring.



If one of the HSW guys could please verify it would greatly help both parties.

thanks ray hopefully hsw can chime in. also sent them a ticket i know org ticket i sent said this:
On the Trick RPM Window switch the yellow wire will go to one side of the FPSS, the other side of the FPSS will connect to the blue wire on The Interface (you will also set the Interface to be triggered off a ground). The Brown wire on The Interface will then connect to the N2O Relay, pin # 85.( the pic i posted in my org thread i did what i thought it ment )

They are assuming you have the dual stage window switch, instead of the single stage.

The single stage uses a 12v trigger instead of a ground trigger. That is why I moved the FPSS to the brown as it is the ground control to the system relay. I have also requested information from HSW to help you but they have not replied yet. Hopefully they will chime in so we can get everything taken care of for you.

ray does the red wire from the window switch have to go all the way back to the switch panel or if i tap into the yellow wire before the switch panel? I tapped in before the panel and the light on the switch turned on and then when i activated the system the light got a brigher color. Also when i activated the system the window switch turned off. Is this because i tapped it instead of going to the actually switch or?

Looks good to me. Assuming the window switch outputs a ground you will need to set the Trigger +/- to - and the Trigger Power to on.

Not sure what is going on currently with your wiring.....double check all your connections and verify that you have good grounds.

Hopefully it is as simple as getting the programming correct between the 2 units.
