610 electrical bits.

Postby Custard » Tue Aug 09, 2016 3:20 pm

As the GTA is now in the throes of bodywork the 610 is going to get used especially as it has AC however my last job is to fix the cutouts, so I want to change the coil pack but the whole thing seen one that fits a Renault five turbo that looks the same is that the case plus what is the best throttle position sensor and flywheel timing sensor

Same coil pack is used on a multitude of Renaults of the same era.

The potentiometer is from a Renault 25 and is an eye watering 191.24 GBP from Renault. Best to rewire it if the tracks are still OK.

Crank sensor as above and very cheap from Euro car parts or similar. OEM version is 57.91 GBP and has insulation fitted but otherwise identical and you can just insulate one of the cheap ones.

Well I got a new tdc identical to the original and I fitted that, plus a complete coilpack with base but the base was the same one that is used on the 2.5 turbo the connections are all the same and plugged in but the old one had the additional section but there where no connections in it. But now the car won't start there is no spark so don't know if the TD sensor is not working or maybe the base unit is different than the 2.5 turbo.

Did you remember to deliberately wire the TDC sensor back to front. Red to white and white to red?

.
The ignition amplifiers are the same, likely you simply have a broken wire. The trigger input wire from the ecu to the the coil pack connector is small gauge and vulnerable to breakage - heat hardening, and then fatigue failure through vibration and handling...

The trigger is in the 2 pin connector, closest to the 3 pin input power conndctor on the ignition amplifier module.

The new NGK et al new replacements for the OE unit have deleted thd third connector - reduce cost, it was never used.

Cheers,
Martin
