Rywire Universal Race Chassis Harness With 16-Channel PDM (Chassis-Harness-Universal-p16)

Rywire Chassis-Harness-Universal-p16 is a universal race chassis harness with a 16-channel solid-state power distribution module (PDM). It wires up any car, from a K-swapped Honda to a 2JZ or rotary build, with programmable fuse-less outputs instead of fuses and relays. The harness is built with Tefzel wire, Deutsch and AMP connectors and split-sleeve loom, plugs into Rywire engine harnesses and also works universally with color-coded flying leads.

Fitment

• Universal: any chassis, race car, off-road car or project build
• Plugs into Rywire D/B/H and B/K standalone-computer (Haltech) engine harnesses, or any harness with the mating connector
• Front, rear and gauge circuits come as color-coded flying leads to wire into your chassis

Features

• 16-channel solid-state, fuse-less PDM with pre-loaded base calibration
• Sixteen 25 A outputs, twelve switched inputs, 52 CAN inputs, 200 A maximum
• PDM weight 430 grams
• Programmable outputs with PC software; outputs can be re-assigned by the user
• On-board data logging of total and per-output current draw
• Pre-programmed and pre-assigned out of the box, so no logic to learn before first start
• Tefzel wire with Deutsch and AMP connectors
• Color-coded wires and split-sleeve loom so circuits can be re-directed cleanly
• Plugs into Rywire engine harnesses or can be used universally

Pre-Configured Outputs and Inputs

• 25 A outputs: starter, coils, fuel pump 1 and 2, fan 1 and 2, headlights/taillights, engine computer, right and left indicators, high beams, brake lights, spare front, spare rear, two spare AUX outputs
• Switched inputs (high or low active): master, fan, starter, brake light, headlight, fuel pump, high beam or water pump, indicators (right and left), plus spare inputs to the AUX connector
• Extra wires for fuel level sender, reverse lights, fault indicator, speed sensor, charge warning, check engine lamp, low oil warning, tach signal, service check, illumination lamps, water gauge, battery supply (to master disconnect), computer memory power, ground and CAN high/low (keypad)

Choosing Options

• Engine Harness: tells Rywire which engine harness connector to build onto the chassis side: Rywire D/B/H, B/K standalone-computer (Haltech), or a mating connector for a non-Rywire harness. No price difference.

Recommended Add-Ons

• Mechanical Products 175A Circuit Breaker: master kill or storage switch between the battery and the PDM power stud.
• Rywire PDM Switch Input Flying Lead Harness: wire your own switches to the PDM switch inputs.
• Rywire PDM Switch Input Mating Connector: build your own switch wiring that plugs into the harness.
• Rywire 6-Switch Mil-Spec Switch Panel: toggles for ignition, starter, fuel pump and fan control.

Add any of these from the Recommended Add-Ons list above. Each one is its own listing.

What's Included

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this harness meant for a street car?

Not really. It is a stripped-down race system with no provision for daily-driver comforts.

Does it have air conditioning circuits?

No. There are no pre-wired A/C circuits.

Can it run power windows?

It can power them, but they are not pre-wired. Rywire recommends feeding power windows from a fused constant source and keeping them off the PDM harness.

Can I use an output for another pump or device?

Yes. If you only need one fan or one fuel pump, borrow the unused channel. The split-braid loom is there because Rywire expects you to re-direct some circuits.

Can it run the heater fan or wipers?

Often, yes. Rywire has powered a Civic heater fan through the factory heater controls from a spare output and has controlled wipers from a spare output. Other vehicles may take more work.

How long does it take to build?

Each system is built to order and may have a lead time. Email service@tunedbyshawn.com with your engine, chassis and ECU before ordering if you are unsure which configuration you need.
