HARNESS OVERVIEW

22

Congratulations on purchasing a Haltech universal 
wire-in harness for a Nexus R3 VCU.
This universal harness plugs directly into the Nexus 
R3 VCU, and has unterminated cables that can be 
wired to suit most popular engines at the other end. 
All the unterminated wires are colour coded and 
labelled in groups for easy identification.
This harness, in conjuction with the Nexus R3 VCU, 
offers all the advanced tuning options available 
through the Nexus Software Programmer (NSP).
This quick start guide will walk you through the 
installation process including specific steps for 
wiring typical sensors, actuators and other common 
engine components.

WARNING!

This harness DOES NOT ground your engine. 
Make sure your engine is sufficiently grounded.  
A ground/earthing strap should be used to 
ground your engine to the battery. Keep all wires 
away from the exhaust manifold.
