if i have pin 9 and 10 hooked up at all times is that bad or good?

Well, you're always going to throw CELs anyway, but you need pins 9 and 10 connected to start the car. Previously, I had them always connected, but this didn't allow me to use cruise control. So if you don't need cruise control, then having them always connected is a good thing lol
where can i find the tutorial on wiring reverse lights i want pics plz so i can be sure, i have an 02 galant LS V6 5SPD swap
i want to do mine .. but im not a mechanic :(,, can someone help?
Can't you just take the white shifter box off the auto trans and twist it Until it lights up N and tuck it away??? Instead of shorting out pins 9-10??
yes, but its pretty bulky. not easy to tuck. and it looks ugly as hell lol
I agree its bulky and hard to tuck. I am at the end of my swap, and I am running into some starting problems... First, I apologize if this is in the wrong forum. I am at the end of my 5-speed swap and I go to turn the key, all I get is a "click". The battery is fully charged and being charged while I am trying all of this.
I have so far.....
-replaced the starter
-bought a starter relay (only the 5-speed uses them) It was worth a try
-crossed over pins 9 & 10
Every time...."Click"
Does anything in the "auto" shifting knob sensors need to be tripped or grounded out?
Thanks for your help
sorry for the late response, but nothing in the knob should need to be tripped or grounded out as far as I'm aware. Is everything plugged back in, and have you double checked that you shorted the correct pins? I can't even remember what the car does when the pins aren't shorted, but I'll go outside and check right now since I am redoing the wiring anyway.
Do You know if anyone doing this swap on a 2.4 4cyl?
Been looking for days on here and only thing i found was v6,im assuming that they are diffrent tuts in some way.guide me to the right page if possible. Would love to do this swap.thanks.
Umm... this thread is on the same page. If you found this, I don't know how you couldn't find the other thread.

Edit
If a 16 year old can do it, then you can too! The wiring isn't that hard, you should get a Haynes manual it helped me out.
Thanks but I think I was running on no sleep n over thinking everything. I realized I've done EVERTHING to the front end of the car but the tranny. So disassembly will be very easy til tranny time.
What kind of wiring needs to be done I've already done the swap and I don't know what else to do😞
This what I've got done
what does the reverse solenoid look like any way
You can't tell how much you've from that view.
Reverse solenoid is a sensor on the transmission with 2 large pins on it.
ill send more pics later and one that are more up to date. and are you talking about the solenoid that is on the automatic? trans because I no longer have that anymore
also looked what it might look like on google pics and it seems to resemble the solenoid on the starter or the speed sensor has two pin outs
IF YOU READ THIS WHOLE THREAD YOU WOULD HAVE FOUND YOUR ANSWER

what is the part number for the reverse gear sensor
Go to any parts store and get one. Ask for it for any eclipse of the same year. Part number is irrelevant and varies from autozone to napa to oreillys. They can look it up like they would brake pads.
I want to say a lot, but I'll say 1 thing. Doing a swap in dirt is already unsafe...
Not the way I have it set up
I have at least 3 points of contact with the ground and all of them are under bricks so the soil doesn't cause the stands to shift. I'm am very thorough when it involves my safety.
As far as the v6 goes. If you have a 2-piece flywheel., align the clutch and fully bolt it on to the flywheel. Then unbolt the back of the flywheel from the plate that bolts to the crank. Slide the now flywheel/clutch assembly onto the trans and raise it with an engine hoist and you won't even have to unbolt the passenger side mount. Took my 5 mins to get the trans in. Once you get the trans onto the dowels and bolted to the motor, by turning the crank, line up the flywheel to the plate through the little access hole and put the bolts you took out in one by one and tighten them.
After the install should you be able to move the clutch fork
Commenting for reference material... working on the swap now
