I swapped in an AX15 into my 96 which had an AW4. I actually wired up a clutch switch to the NSS, so when the clutch is in, the park/neutral is closed, so it will crank, when clutch is out, nothing is closed.
This made it not CEL anymore, when I hard wired the park/neutral, it threw a CEL eventually saying bad NSS switch.
I also tried to hard wire park/nuetral and 3rd gear together, that also threw a CEL.
My issue is when I push the button to close the park/neutral, the idle actually changes. I had the car die on me once. When I was driving I hit the brakes and had the clutch pushed in, the idle dropped so much the car died.
So I wasn't sure if it was the clutch or the switch, so I tested it.
If I'm idling, in neutral, if I just push the clutch swithc, which just closes the park/neutral circuit, the idle drops to like 200 rpm, then comes back up. Sometimes it doesn't drop, and sometimes it drops and doesn't come back up.
I ordered a new IAC, but the ECU/PCM is for sure changing things with the idle when it see it go into park/neutral, and it's making the engine run worse.
What do people do about this? I got reverse and 4wd light wired up and working, but the only option is a switch I have to flip, then crank, then flip the switch back off? That is a pain.
I'm going to start another thread with a ECU/PCM swap question.
