Elite 1000 Main Connector Pinout - 26 Pin

Elite Series Firmware Help › Elite Series ECU Information › Elite 1000 / 2000Updated Sep 2026

The 26-pin plug on the Elite 1000 carries the sensor side of the install: triggers, temperature and O2 inputs, speed inputs, knock and CAN. We've grouped the pinout by job so it's quicker to wire from and easier to check.

Colors below use Haltech's harness abbreviations: Y yellow, G green, GY grey, V violet, O orange, R red, W white, B black, BR brown, L blue. SHD means the wire is shielded. Always double check against your harness labels before pinning.

Wiring tips from the shop

  • Keep the shield on trigger and SPI wires intact right up to the sensor connector. Most mystery trigger errors we chase come back to broken shielding or trigger wires routed next to coil leads.
  • Signal grounds are for sensors. Don't use pins 14-16 to ground solenoids, relays or anything that carries real current.
  • DPO 4 can switch 1A. Use it to drive a relay or a small solenoid, not a fuel pump directly.
  • The O2 inputs are for narrowband sensors. For a wideband, use a CAN controller on pins 23 and 24.
