GnatGoSplat Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 That harness you found is for the HUD controller. Yes, you do have to splice everything to put DIS in a 94 Cutlass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 hmmm :-/ so i have to splice for the dis but not for a hud? :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 Yep, that's right, because HUD was an option, but DIS was not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsgrntld187 Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 Oh shit where did you find that harness? I'd rather have HUD than DIS.. Would this HUD work for my car? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33678&item=7905942647&rd=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsgrntld187 Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 Would it just be plug and play or would it need rewiring? I don't mind the gaping hole in the dash part, just the rewiring part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 It's been awhile since I had a Bonneville HUD in front of me, but it would require rewiring and dash modification. The Bonneville HUD is HUGE and differently shaped. I seem to recall it had different connectors too. I would get a Cutlass HUD, it's plug & play.

dsgrntld187 Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 Does anyone have one they would sell or uh.. "donate" to charity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 While we're on that, I want one too now that i don't have as much modifying to do it :-) (i guess ill check ebay and the for sale section) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GutlessSupreme Posted June 26, 2004 Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 Ok, so I have mine all powered up and everything, but still cant figure out where the three data wires go to. It says the aldl connector. What is that? and do all three go to that? thanks a bunch Are you talking HUD or DIS? I don't know what's done in '94+ cars, but as said in this topic.. DIS: The BLACK connector is C2. Wire A is ORANGE. Connect this to the ORANGE wire coming out of the ALDL connector under your dash. This is your SERIAL DATA INPUT where the DIC will get the info for your gauges button. Wire B = DARK GREEN. Connect this to the DARK GREEN wire in the dash. This is your Vehicle Speed Input. In my car it is wire number D15. Wire C = PINK. Connect this one to the PURPLE wire in the dash. This is your vehicle Fuel sender wire. In my car it is wire number D13. Wire D = BLACK/GREEN. This is another GROUND. It is not used in the 91 model. I orange wire (wire a) is the only one going to the ALDL connector. it should be a plug right in the driver foot well, next to where the console ends. Wire B and C get wired to wires in your cluster's harness. and then of course black/gr is a ground Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 I got the DIS all installed and everything, and I knew that the fuel econ stuff wouldn't work, but is the trip info and stuff supposed to be able to? if anyone knows please let me know how Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 I'm pretty sure that's supposed to work too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 any help with my last post? just thought id bump it :-) Id like to get at least the trip info working, as well as the fuel econ (with some wiring probably) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockfangd Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 This is a copy of one of the emails i got from somebody from this message board long time ago and it helped me. The BLUE connector is C1. Wire A = a RED wire. Connect it to an ORANGE wire that is HOT ALL OF THE TIME. (I connected mine to the ORANGE wire that gives power to the cigarette lighter, but it is recommended that you connect it to the ELEC. Fuse #2 constant +12V (top row, middle fuse).) Wire B = PINK/BLACK. Connect it to a wire that is HOT IN RUN. (I connected mine to one of the PINK/BLACK wire in my dash, but it is recommended that you connect it to CLUST. Fuse #9 switched +12V (3rd row, far right).) Wire C = BROWN. Connect it to the light on input. In my car I have a YELLOW wire in slot C10 but I think that that is exclusive to the digi-dash. I want to soy that there should be a YELLOW wire coming out of the headlight switch that should work. I know that on my dash, when the lights are on, and the display is at MAX, then it has no power in the wire, but when I adjust the lever down, the wire becomes hot, and dims steadily. I use a tester that is just a screwdriver looking thing that has a point at one end, and an alligator clip that you hook up to ground. Wire D = GREY. Connect this to one of the grey wire for illumination. I hooked mine up to the GREY wire that lights up the bulb for the cigarette lighter light. Wire E = BLACK/WHITE. This is a ground. Wire F = BLACK/GREY. This wire is not used. Wire G = YELLOW. Connect this wire to the LITE BLUE wire in the dash (You may not have this wire). This is your English/metric wire. In my car, I push a button on the dash to change it from English (MPH) to metric (KPH). When this wire is hooked up, it automatically changes the DIC display from one to the other when the E/M button is pushed on the dash. This is a wire that is not necessary for the DIC to function, so if you do not have the wire, then just leave it unconnected. Wire H = BLACK. This is a ground. I hooked this up to the BLACK wire connected to the cigarette lighter light. The BLACK connector is C2. Wire A is ORANGE. Connect this to the ORANGE wire coming out of the ALDL connector under your dash. This is your SERIAL DATA INPUT where the DIC will get the info for your gauges button. Wire B = DARK GREEN. Connect this to the DARK GREEN wire in the dash. This is your Vehicle Speed Input. In my car it is wire number D15. Wire C = PINK. Connect this one to the PURPLE wire in the dash. This is your vehicle Fuel sender wire. In my car it is wire number D13. Wire D = BLACK/GREEN. This is another GROUND. It is not used in the 91 model. Driver Info System was not available 92+. You will not find a new cutlass with one. If you put one in your car, then it will go where the storage cubbyhole is under the ashtray. The screw-holes for the 98 Regency’s DIC is identical the Cutlasses, so it will go there with no problem. If you get the DIC out of a Cutlass, then be sure to get the storage pocket as well. IF (OR WHEN) you get the HUD, then the control switch will go where the storage is. 89-90 cars got a little pocket in the empty space. HUD control panel was mounted above the headlight switch (below the dash pad). 91 cars got a little pocket if they didn't have HUD. Cars with HUD got the control panel instead of the pocket. Is your headlight switch up high next to the speedometer with the foglight switch next to the air vent? If so, then the HUD switch goes in the pocket. My car headlight switch is located next to the vent, with the foglight switch next to the speedo. (INT'L models also had the BASS BOOST switch as well as the foglight switch) But I will still put the HUD switch next to the DIC. Thank you i finally found the pinouts i have been searching so hard for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockfangd Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 I PM him. My question is where does the chip go. Am i going to have to mail something to him so he can do work or do i just put it in somewheres lol. I feel dumb lol :question: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 it depends on what he has. The one I bought from him was a reprogrammed chip from something else, he just redid it. If I remember right, you can either have a chip reprogrammed, or mine is an add on, basically using my stock chip still, just with another chip in between. All you have to do is get to your computer box and take out the screws, and then pop out the chip, and replace or add the new one, depending on what you get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockfangd Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 he states that he does not have one for 3100 all he has is 3.4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 youre probably out of luck then for fuel econ. i forgot that on top of the 94 computer you also have to compensate for engine size. so yeah, dont think anyone's figured out the 94 3.1 rate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
