2JZ CAS wiring

[The Witzl]

white wire is usually the earth line for the VR signal.... but i cant be sure with the 2JZ (having never wired one up).

If you wire it up with white as negative, the standard toyota convention is falling edge

It's all there in my FAQ.

Thanks to all, I at least have something to go on now. I'll report my success/failure in the next week or so!

Sorry - i forgot to add that you will definitely want to extend the shielding if you need to extend the wires. I have used 2-core microphone cable in the past with great success (my 18RG currently uses 2-core mic cable for the whole lenght of the VR wiring)

I have some spare shielded cable from the second unused cam sensor, so I'll just use that. Any tips for joining shielded cables together?

-join inner trace(s)
-cover that join with heat-shrink (which you should have had on the cable before soldering)
-twist up and join the shield at a single point
-cover join with heat-shrink but leave braiding exposed at both sides of join
-wrap with a section of braid from another shielded cable (e.g. USB or coax cable?) from one braided side to another and make small solder join at each end
-cover all with another layer of heatshrink
-do skids

now the core and shield is well connected plus the shield is intact.

I have 1uz ones that I can pull apart to have a look for you if your interested.
