Lotus ECU Pinouts

Hi y’all,

Just wondering if anyone had a pinout diagram for the Exige S1 ECU. I should really think about starting to wire up my emerald adaptor loom and this would be a useful piece of material to begin with :wink:

87 green / blue OBD2 -
88 green / red OBD2 -

  • Group injectors together 1&4 and 2&3
    ** Install a relay to switch a +12v supply to the fuel pump relay by using pin 20 of the M3D to ground the relay coil
    *** To enable both cooling fans to work at the same time you need to connect this to pin 6 as well
    This was from Phil years ago …

I have a document for this if you need it - just u2u

Bloody hell, Andy, well remembered! You shold go on Mastermind, specialist subject is… :smiley:
