I've pretty much worked out from the FSM what all of the pins on the ECU do. There are a couple that I'm not entirely sure of. They are marked in bold italics. As far as I could follow the diagram, that's what they do. I just don't like the colours. Like Green/black for start signal. Usually Nissan uses Orange/black.

Here it is anyway, now in table form:http://www.freewebs.com/chemic...t.wps

FSM pages EF 180-183 explain this in more detail.

Even better are pages 211-216. I can't believe I didn't bother looking that far!

Where is this EF section you speak of? I don't think I've got that one.

EF isn't listed as an available download from this site and it isn't part of the 1994 Q45 FSM I just downloaded from PhatG20 either.

Found it, thanks!!! Another question...All of the functions on the ECU that I don't intend to use (ECU is from '95 w/ TCS) can I simply remove all of the wiring for this, or should I leave the plugs connected to the ECU but not connected to the engine? Same with AC system....getting thrown out.

Depends how neat you want it to look and how much effort you want to put into it. You can strip back the loom and remove all the wiring you don't need, or you can just leave it all plugged in to wherever it goes on the engine.
