Throttle actuator pinout

[Corrado613]

Hello, i am coming here from the s2 forum with a specific question. I am swapping a d2 s8 engine into a 91 coupe quattro. I have what i BELIEVE is the correct throttle actuator. However the wiring diagrams i downloaded from erwin do not seem to correlate. Does anyone here have the pinouts for this actuator?

Thanks

Welcome

The facelift engine wiring diagram is here: https://d2doctor.co.uk/files/2000_A8_S8_engine.pdf

The pedal sensor is on P7.

Mikkijayne, that's a name i haven't read in about 15 years lol... (corrados and the s2/coupes?)

That diagram is the same as i have, and it doesn't match the wire colours on the actuator.

That is unless what you're saying is the pins referenced in the diagram are those of the connector and i am to ignore the wires between the body and connector?

Mmm sadly I haven't had a Corrado in probably about that long. My red 16V just rotted away and was beyond saving a second time

I believe the pins on the diagram are the pins on the connector, since it doesn't show any intermediate connections until T10 which is way over in the ECU box. But, I have a couple of body harnesses so I can check the colours on the car side at the weekend and make sure they correlate.

That would be fantastic thanks!

I had my corrado for 14 years, sold it whrn i started havin kids. Funny thing is i don't miss it at all???

Yeah I'm with you on not missing it. It was fab to look at, but working on it every weekend got very old, very fast. I miss my mk2 a lot more - that was as much fun, and just worked,
