Firstly - welcome to the forum 8)

Second - you are not giving us much to work with here , can you give us some more info ??? Are you using the EK harness with the VN ECU harness or have you started from scratch ??? Got fuel pressure ? Can you read fault codes ? etc ....
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Hi Bema
I'm wondering how you are getting on with your wiring I have just had a look at the "Ultimate Wiring harness" website and not sure where your issue may be as I would assume that you are using the original engine harness which should plug straight into your ECU if I remember rightly there is another plug that comes off of the engine harness that the rest of the body harness should then plug into.
As we said before a little more info and we may be able to help mate.
