Re: GroundKit - 7th Wire location..

From Gordgee's Hyper Grounding Thread in our FAQ/DIY forum.

Go to this section of the thread and scroll down a little more than 1/4 the way to <font color=red>InSaNeAmine1</font color=red>'s posts for pics of the connection points.

Be patient.-- It may take a minute or 2 for it to load due to the link's size.

See the HyperGrounding # 7 Wire thread. There are a couple pics of grounding points in my profile for the engine bay and behind the glovebox.

Re: GroundKit - 7th Wire location..

yaa i saw those pics.. but i cant for the life of me find the gold bracket w/ the connection point.. ive found everything else.. the exhaust manifold, wire loom, blue connector piece, and im right up next to the tranny housing on the passenger side.. and no bracket.. keep in mind i have an aftermarket exhaust (injen) but i cant see how this would matter.

Re: GroundKit - 7th Wire location..

Yes. Park on a level parking spot or inside the garage. Apply parking brake. Jack up the car at the right front wheel jack point. Place blocks on the back left tire (or both back tires) to prevent movement, kick them into place. I use large solid concrete 2x4x8 bricks from Home Depot, they are a couple dollars each. Then use 2 ton (or greater) jack stands before sliding under the car. If you don't have any, Wal-Mart usually has a pair for under $15. Do not trust the tire jack to stay in place, slight rocking will cause it to collaspe especally when its lifted up past the point where the tire no longer touches the ground.

Re: GroundKit - 7th Wire location..

Here you go, this should help. I create this without having to jack up the car. Pictures are from my 2004 5AT Coupe.

Re: GroundKit - 7th Wire location..

Here's another shot. But don't worry about the exact location, as long as the wire is attached to a convenient spot on the tranny. Some cars only have a strip clamp that is held on by a bolt holding the wire loom. Attach the cable under that bolt.

None of the links in this web page seem to work. Is it just me having this problem?

This is a old thread. Many of the pictures and links were probably not carried over from the old forum software. Use this thread to see my GroundingGear pics:

Thank you, I went ahead and printed out those pictures. I wasn't sure where the 7th wire went on the transmission, so I took some pictures of where I installed it and emailed Gordon those pictures to see if that is the correct location.
