Exaclty.

Don't forget there's going to be a bunch of wires, power and or grnd that are going to be spliced together. Like one grnd goes out to 5 different connectors.
Yes, fortunately the branches are easy to identify as they used but crimps and wrapped them in blue tape. For the few circuits I've removed so far I've just gone one circuit at a time and cut it at the crimp. If that whole branch ends up getting removed so be it, but I'd rather not mistakenly remove an entire branch that needed to stay.

Mike, I had a thought this morning..... how is the fuel pump wired exactly. If memory serves, it's going to take a signal from the ECU, run through the firewall side, up to the relay box, back through the resistor, back into the front harness and then connect to the rear harness and go off to the fuel pump. That wire that once powered the fuel pump, trace that back to the jump between the front are rear harness and take the front harness section of wire and run it over towards the ECU.

That can be the new trigger for the relays that will be in the trunk area.
Ign switch sends power through the FP relay coil and to the ECU (which I assume latches to ground). Ign switch also sends power through the circuit opening relay, then through the FP relay contacts and FP resistor in parallel. From there it goes to the FP. See diagram below.



So if I'm understanding correctly you are suggesting removing the W/R wire from connector B1-04 (connector on the relay block) and sending it over to the ECU? I have already eliminated the FP resistor circuit in the diagram. It would appear I could also eliminate the L/R wire coming off the circuit opening relay through B1-03?

*Note X-10 is the connector between front and rear harness.
