A seriously screwed up harness swap somewhere. What type car, what engine, what harness used on the engine?
When you pull up on the E-Brake, you put a gnd on a circuit. Last time I looked that was a one wire circuit to the idiot light cluster that puts a gnd on a LIGHT BULB, seemingly having nothing to do with anything. Therefore there is a serious miswire of the swap somewhere.
If you have a 87 non turbo and put a turbo engine in it, the easiest way to do that is to use all non turbo harnesses. That includes using the non turbo EM harness on the engine. It's almost plug and play that way. If you use a Turbo EM harness on the engine you just made life more difficult. Not that more difficult but more difficult non the less. IF you used a JDM right hand drive EM harness on the engine, you made your life more difficult and that sounds like one sorry way to wire the EM harness to the FRONT harness if that was done. Never said it couldn't be done though. Anybody that says use a Stand Alone instead is just full of _ _ it.

Thanks for the info, I got it fixed, there was a lose Pwr wire that hooks to the fuel pump.
Now my next issue, my driver side E brake cable is shorting somehow. Not any of the other cables just the driver rear. It gets so hot it melted the plastic off from the cable now its bare metal. It doesnt have any wires touching it directly.
