Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

can i assume that if it needs ground when i check the wire coming from the start lock relayi should see 12+?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

im finishing up the ls3 swap on my 987.1 . i went with the LInk g4extreme ecu as it was supposedly simpler than trying to marry the gm and porsche computers as link says it has all the canbus streams so it will all talk as it should. i have a couple of initial issues. i know the clutch switch is a simple switch to ground, but the actual start activation is where i need some assistance. the wiring shows power into the terminal 15 relay. the relay coil is provided 12+ and is switched by ground provided by the pas (drivers recognition unit). power then goes to a second relay (start lock relay) that is powered by the ecu . one side of the coil goes to the ecu and the other goes to the PAS. i don't know if the ecu provides power or ground to this coil. can i assume that if it needs ground when i check the wire coming from the start lock relayi should see 12+? my other question is if the first relay that the PAS powers on whenever the proper key in in the ignition or is it only active when the start lock relay is energized. it appears from the attached diagram that possible when the start lock relay is energized and closed the contact the power that energizes the starter solenoid may also pass through the PAS to then power the first realy letting power flow through the start lock relay. anyone have any insight on this?

Great to hear you've gotten it worked out. When you have a few minutes - how about a new post on doing your transplant - there are a number of people interested in this sort of project - people with IMS or bore-score issues.. Abd welcome to Planet-9!
