Gotech Pro Coil packs installation

Post by fedezyl »

Well I just received the Gotech Pro unit with Coil packs from JJ, now I need some help hooking the coilpacks. The V6 conversion on my Giulietta is nearing completion, in fact the car is getting painted right now and a new interior fitted, so I need some help with the coil packs as I understand JJ told me I should be carefull when hooking them up. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hey Federico, YES!

Aside from making sure that your connections are correct, the main thing to remember with VW VR6 coil-packs is never to unplug the plug-wires at the coil-pack while the car is running (like maybe trying to diagnose a dead plug/plug-wire/coil-pack...)

Also, never unplug the GoTech while the ignition key is on.

Then, whenever unplugging Gotech or plugging it back in, first disconnect power to the coil-packs!

Here is a picture for the correct hook-up...

Nah... Anywhere is fine - just make sure that they are secure, somewhat shielded from direct exhaust-heat and somewhat dry...

TIP for coil pack wires

Always try to keep all the outputs from the Gotech away from the input signals... This will keep all interference at bay,
