Dj_mini 7 Posted September 19, 2008 Iv bought a xsara vts for a conversion on my 205 but im unsure if i can use the loom is it the same as the 306 gti6 loom? Thanks Dan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshpug 1,621 Posted September 19, 2008 you can use it no probs, though there are some small differences IIRC, allpraisethegti used one of these looms in his car. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richie-Van-GTi 70 2 Cars Posted September 19, 2008 Yup, its the same loom but citreon dont use the numbering system like peugeot so it can get a bit more complicated. Best option is to first pin out all the wires to the ecu plug and label them as they are easily identified that way using autodata. then pin out from each plug to work out all you sensor wiring. You'll have a few stragglers left over after that which can soon be worked out by posting up here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jackherer 543 Posted September 19, 2008 I think the later Xsaras have multiplex looms which wont work in a 205, what year is it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dj_mini 7 Posted September 19, 2008 Its an s reg so i would expect it to be the normal type? To unlock the ecu do i just need to un plug the transponder wile the engine is running like you do on the saxo's and 106's? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alastairh 47 Posted September 19, 2008 you can use it no probs, though there are some small differences IIRC, allpraisethegti used one of these looms in his car. No he didn't. He used a Phase 1 306 loom converted by me from my old 205 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Richie-Van-GTi 70 2 Cars Posted September 20, 2008 never used a vts loom but have used various citreon looms for mi16, s16 and 2.0 turbo etc. The principles the same on all systems except of course multiplex (even then the loom plugs and wires can be used just not the ecu). Just go ahead, get the loom and do what I said above. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
platty 1 Posted September 20, 2008 Im doing the very same conversion at the moment with a VTS loom. Also peeling open the loom today has revealed numbers on the cabling, I'll let you know how I get on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonnie205 1 Posted September 21, 2008 loom are slightly differnt but tidier as they only have 1 plug to wire into where the 306 has 2. The loom is exactly the same to wire into and i have done a few xsara looms and all have had wire numbers the same as pug. Pin 14 will get it running then just fuel pump and gauges and a spikey rev counter loom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
