Coyote Gen 3 Control Pack Power Wiring?

[richtersand]

Hi all, quick question for you. My gen 3 Coyote control pack came with this wire running into the power side of the fuse box. It was very loosely connected, and I am assuming that’s where it’s supposed to be connected. But we all know assumptions make an a$$ out of u and me. I can’t confirm the wire in the control pack instructions or with Forte, so I thought I would throw it out here and see if anyone has any insight on the wire and can confirm if it’s in its correct location. (This is the black loom coming out of the harness and into the power side of the fuse box.)

Thanks in advance!

Yes, that's the power input for the control pack and yes it goes there. I assume they left it loose because you have to add the main battery power cable before tightening it down. FWIW, you can see the cable connected to the PDB in my Coupe build. Works like a champ.

Hey Matt, I would add that you need to watch the spacing between the PDB and the engine when you are doing the install. Mine was low on the firewall like yours and it was in the way. I have the firewall forward mod though, so if you are using the supplied firewall it probably is not an issue. Just a heads-up for you.

Thanks for the heads up!
