Engine wiring loom: where to buy?
Hi,
It's been almost a week now I'm trying to find a wiring loom. I still haven't make my mind on which one of my two engines I want to use in the Roadster, but I want to have all the data's between my hands to make my decision. If I chose to use my SOHC (Pinto 2.0 EFI), I will need a complete engine wiring loom (I bought the engine separately from my donor). I've been looking for one, new or used, as much as I could on the net (Sweden, France, UK) but no luck so far. Do you guys know where I should look? I know there is "Premier Looms" in the UK, but they don't look to have a lot of activity, and actually, their website is quite wired and not sure they are actually working. I can also buy a used one, but nothing on the bay. There should be other places I haven't checked because I don't know them. Any idea, advice, direction and so on is welcome. Thank you :) |
Sylvain,
I can recommend Premier Looms, they are now based in Spain, and I bought my loom from them in May, it is a very small business, I think it is just a husband and wife affair. But they make very good products and they were very happy to answer all of my questions and the loom arrived when they said it would. Send them an email and see what they say. Simon |
I doubt they would build an engine loom as the plugs are almost impossible to buy.
EFi pinto stuff is very sought after. TT |
AFAIU custom looms usually come without the connectors, you have to wire up your own.

Thank you for the answers.
Simon, I contacted Premier looms them between xmas and new year, and no reply so far. May be they are on holidays... we'll see. TT, one more time you confirm the suspicions I had... I think it is going to be difficult. Al, this is an interesting information. What is the point to have a loom done if there is no connectors? Simon, do you confirm the loom you got from Premier was without connectors? |
Ah, sorry, I thought you were speaking of a custom body loom. I doubt anyone would be able to build you a custom engine loom without a donor loom for plugs. Did you investigate the possibility to get an original one from Ford?

The loom came without connectors, you need to make them yourself, however they do come with relay holders and fuses boxes in place, also as every cable is a different colour it makes fault finding so much easier.

It's the ford specific connectors that snookers everyone.
You can get a few in the states but some bit's are just not available. TT |
