the black wire that you are holding in your hands, was that pluged into the starter just next to the BIG wire that is bolted to the starter? if so then yes, your car will not start with out that wire.. it is the signal/switched wire that tells the starter to turn over, the BIG wire only feeds power to the electric motor in the starter.. so you need both.. hope this helps

Hope thats the only problem. Tired of reading this and only seeing problems being sorted out. I wanna see a post about how much you love 6gc's and how the 4a feels!

yup.. np. but you will have to get a new O2 sensor as well.. looking in that pic the sensor is there, but the wires are clipped off... you will get a CEL due to that.. cahlk one more to the list.. but easy fix though

Yes, you will need that wire on the starter. I'd check all the wires on all the sensors before shipping the harness out, a quick tug to see if the wires are cut/loose should do. If this wire was making a very loose connection, then that explains why the car would sometimes start but often wouldn't.

I'm dying to hear a review of a 4A swapped Celica. I've found a select few posts saying the Silvertop swap is a poor choice for a Celica due to the car's weight and the engine's low torque. But I don't believe I've read anything on a Blacktop swapped Celica so I'm hoping you can get the wiring sorted out and have a reliable DD. I'd love to see this thing at the Midwest Meet.

The wiring harness has bin out of the car for about a month, i will ship it out anyway and have drtweak work his magic and fix what needs to be fixed, and i hope it will be a reliable DD and i extreamly hope i will be there at the midwest meet, if not i will bring my broke ass miata

Stock radio or aftermarket?

vplukas101

#45

currently no radio lol, the blue harness goes into the radio and then i have no idea what that white plug goes to

celica74

#46

wish i could help. when i replaced mine i dont remember any blue connectors. i know there is one for the head unit, and a black plug for the antenna. are you sure its for the sterro and not your cig, lighter?

mkernz22

#47

Get a better picture of it with the wire colors showing. I could easily tell you then

Edit: From what it looks like, it might be the plug for the light that lights up the ring around the cigarette lighter
