Understanding Diagram Wire Locations in These Pages
You will see information such as shown below for each connector in this harness. In the event that you need
to know where any wire goes, this will explain how to read it these diagrams.
The #2 Blue wire shows 1/2, which means the OTHER end of this wire goes to Connector 1, Position 2. Con-
nector #1 is the ECU, so this circuit goes to ECU Pin 2.

A1. Red/Gray: from 1/15 ECU pin 15. This wire brings input to your ECU from the AC relay
pin D+/61 or AC control switch (Red/Gray). It allows
the ECU to compensate the idle speed when AC is
activated.
A2. Green: from 1/14 ECU pin 14. This wire brings input to your ECU from the AC
compressor. It tells the ECU that your AC compressor is
engaged. It’s used to keep the idle speed stable when
compressor starts.

B1. Blue: from 7/6, 1/35 ICU pin 6, ECU pin 35. Connect this to switched power from ignition switch Terminal 15
(or any 12v circuit “ON” with Ignition Switch in the “RUN”
position). This source may usually be tapped from the input of fuse
11, 12 or 13 for a late 240 (or fuse 3, 4 or 5 for 1978 and older
240). This circuit may be combined with wire B3 Blue. Ensure
the 12v connection used also remains “ON” when the key is turned
to the “CRANK” position.
B2. Red/Yell (fat): from 4/5 Fuel Relay pin 5. This is the output from the Fuel Pump Relay to supply power to the
fuel pumps. This wire should be connected at the fuse panel to the
INPUT side of the fuse for the fuel pump power. You can choose
from the following fuses: 1979 -84: Fuse 5. 1985 and later: Fuse 4.
For pre-1979, you can choose any fuse that is not currently being
used, such as fuse 10, or install an in-line fuse and then connect to
pumps.
B3. Blue (fat): from 23b Coil +. Connect this to switched power from ignition switch Terminal 15
(any 12v circuit “ON” with Ignition Switch in the “RUN” position).
This source may usually be tapped from the input of fuse 11, 12 or
13 (or fuse 3, 4 or 5 for 1978 and older 240). This circuit may be
combined with wire B1 Blue. Ensure the 12v connection used also
remains “ON” when the key is turned to the “CRANK” position.
B4. Blk/Blue: from 1/34 ECU pin 34. Connect to pulse signal from LH 2.4 speedometer pin 31/6 (in
round plug). This signal is produced by an LH 2.4 compatible
speedo that is connected to the differential VSS.
See NEXT DIAGRAM for pin 31/6 on cluster.
B5. Violet: from 1/26 ECU pin 26. May be connected for Shift Light for a manual transmission car. To
pin 34 of LH 2.4 compatible instrument cluster.
See NEXT DIAGRAM for pin 34 on cluster.
B6. Pink/Wht
(2 wires): from 1/22, 7/3 ECU pin 22, ICU pin 3. Check engine light (CEL). Connect to pin 32/3 or pin 235 of an
LH 2.4 compatible instrument cluster.
See NEXT DIAGRAM for these instrument cluster pins.
B7. Pink: from 1/30 ECU pin 30. Supplies LH ECU pin 30 with momentary power when starter is
engaged for idle enhancement. If used, connect this wire to starter
solenoid circuit. The starter solenoid circuit is normally the Blue/
Yellow wire in the under dash multi-pin plug or 8-pole firewall
plug.
B8 Red/White from 22/1 Ign Powerstage pin 1. Output to tachometer lead if needed for your tach or any other
device. You may connect this wire to your tach input spade shown
in the next diagram.
See NEXT DIAGRAM for tach spade connection.

Notes for pins B4, B5 and B6 from previous page. Locations of instrument cluster pins.
Some wires and wire colors changed year to year. See my Gauge Electrical Page at:
www.240turbo.com/240gaugewiring.html.
Notes for Check Engine Light (CEL). It has been found that some EARLY LH 2.4 instrument clusters used pin 32/3
for the CEL (for USA and Canada 240s) and pin 235 for Non-USA cars. Some early USA/CAN LH 2.4 clusters have
been found to NOT have a pin 235.
Later LH 2.4 clusters changed pin 32/3 to an ABS lamp, so in those clusters the CEL was connected through pin 235.
If you're using an earlier (pre-1989) instrument cluster, you can connect the CEL circuit to any unused warning
lamp you wish to use, such as a Lambda Sond lamp, EGR lamp or Choke lamp. For detailed information about 240
instrument cluster pinouts I have created a 240 Gauge Electrical Page at:
www.240turbo.com/240gaugewiring.html.

Red/White wire connects here. Don’t goof and connect this Red/White
wire anywhere else or you risk damage to your ignition control unit. If
your tach has two spades at the bottom here, you may connect to either
one.

GREEN WIRE NOTE: The GREEN wire in pin 6 is not normally found in a 240 LH 2.4 engine harness. It has been added
to this harness for the convenience of a 240 Turbo owner or other 240 model that will use this green wire for a 2-pole oil pres-
sure sender (type for use with separate oil pressure gauge). Some
non-turbo 240s may have a different color wire in pin 6 going through the firewall. If you are adding new wiring an oil pres-
sure gauge, it will be important to make sure this wire goes to the oil pressure gauge pin “G” (a 240 Turbo will already be
wired for this gauge).
CAUTION: If you have a 240 non-turbo you may find an already existing GREEN wire in your 8-pole firewall plug.
That GREEN wire may be the wire Volvo used for an optional engine compartment light. In this case, that wire goes to
the fuse panel and is connected to power. DO NOT use this circuit for the oil pressure sender. If needed, you may re-
move this bullet from the 8-pole plugs and reconnect outside the plug housings if you plan to continue using the light.
The above wire color information will help you to match the wires in the
conversion harness. You have the choice of keeping the older spade type
8-pole firewall plug, but if you do, you will need to cut off and replace the
plug on the conversion harness.
The (female) plug on the conversion harness is the newer style SEALED bullet connector that Volvo began using for
all 1980 and later 240s. It’s a better connector due to being water resistant. If you will be using it, the you’ll need to
cut off and replace the older 8-pole plug on the firewall with a matching (male) 8-pole bullet plug. This newer style
plug and the wire pigtail inserts are available separately.

wire.

This harness is equipped with the below CONNECTOR and included BY-PASS ADAPTER.
Using the by-pass adapter this harness will support High Impedance Injectors.
If you decide to use Low Impedance Injectors, you must unplug the by-pass adapter and
instead plug in any standard Volvo 740 Turbo fuel injector Ballast Resistor Pack.
CAUTION:
Using low impedance injectors WITHOUT a ballast resistor pack can DAMAGE your LH 2.4 ECU.
