Here you go. Please note that after making the attached changes, the F-150 Coyote should fire up but I would not run it like this for more than just a second to see if it will start and idle. The F-150 + whatever modification you have made to it will need a custom calibration and the software adjustments for the HEGO, knock sensors, and diagnostics. The stock controls pack tune is expecting a stock air intake, Mustang manifolds, longblock, etc. and that is something your F-150 in a custom installation is not going to mirror. AFRs, timing, diagnostics, etc. are going to be all over the place without changes to the software.

Most software tuners should be able to figure out the sensor assignment for you and do a data log to create a custom tune. When I worked with Ken we did several lengthy data logs from a cold start to operating temp to get the base tune right. The Coyote purrs like a kitten now but I have to do more data logging and tuning with Ken once I get it on the street to make sure the tune is calibrated right under load and driving conditions.


Disclaimer: This is only meant as a guide of one way to do this. It is purely in hopes of helping others with their projects and avoiding the aggravations. The attached worked great for me and is how I solved my wiring issues, but I make no warranty, guarantees, etc. on what you do to your wiring harness, if you cut the wrong wires, short circuit something, break a connector, and so on. If you're in doubt then just don't do the attached and go buy a premade harness from someone (the only ones I found were pretty expensive for just a pinout change though).

I encourage you to verify your work (and my guide) before proceeding or connecting power to your PCM.
