    Mark he wont get any codes because its a stand alone system that he'll be controlling with a switch, not tapping into the FCM

    I guess I didn't express myself clearly. I didn't mean to imply Adam would get codes. I meant that I had a code that very well may have been related to the harness as much as the solenoid. The harness could fray or harden. This could end up being a gremlin for Adam's install. I realize he's wiring this independent from the XK's computer.

    I'm not sure this was any clearer than before!

    Yeah I guess I wasnt following why he would have an issue with the harness because I envisioned him running his own wires to the solenoid, not using the oem harness.

    I'm using the oem harness that's inside the diff. Everything from the outside of diff will be wired according to what you say I need. Lol

    I should run an inline fuse correct? What size 30 amp???

    Oh if the internal harness is what he was referring to, good point!

    For fuse size I need to know what resistance you measure across the solenoid. I can probably find it in the manual tonight too....

    30 amp is going to be way too much. Probably more than 10. Will find out for sure though.

    I swear I already asked this, but I can't find it anywhere........... so here goes again:

    Where and how did you go about finding the QDII Diff?

    So Adam, not to badger over this point, but did you replace the wire harness that goes through the diff case to the solenoid?

    Nope. Not to worried about it. I'll order it once I get the wiring done and keep it as a spare if i ever need it. Later on if it gives me issues ill swap it in. Will only take about a half hour to do and I always keep gear oil and rtv in the back of the jeep.
