1989 – 1995 Nissan Bluebird SR20DET ECU

ECU connector pinout for the Nissan Bluebird U13 with SR20DET engine, covering tachometer, MAF, coolant temp, O2, TPS, VSS, and injector signals.

The Nissan Bluebird U13 (1991–1997) was offered in selected markets, including Australia and New Zealand, with the SR20DET turbocharged 2.0 litre DOHC inline-four engine managed by Nissan’s ECCS (Electronic Concentrated Control System). The ECU provides sequential multi-point fuel injection and electronic ignition timing control via a multi-pin connector on the engine bay harness. The U13 SR20DET is a transverse front-wheel-drive application, which gives it a distinct harness and ECU connector layout compared to the rear-wheel-drive SR20DET fitted to the S13 Silvia and 180SX. Nissan published the factory service manual for this model in Japanese only; no official English-language edition is known to exist.

Notes

The connector layout shown covers the documented signal positions only; pins not listed have unknown functions. The SR20DET in the U13 Bluebird uses a transverse FWD orientation, and its ECU harness connector differs from the longitudinal RWD SR20DET used in the S13/S14/S15 S-chassis — pinouts from those platforms should not be assumed to apply here.

Signals

  • Tachometer Signal — engine speed output, used by instruments and ancillary systems
  • Mass Air Flow Sensor — analogue voltage from the hot-wire MAF sensor; input to fuel calculation
  • Mass Air Flow Sensor Ground — dedicated ground reference for the MAF sensor circuit
  • Engine Coolant Temperature SensorNTC thermistor analogue input; used for warm-up enrichment and ignition timing correction
  • O2 Sensor Signal — narrowband lambda sensor voltage; used for closed-loop fuelling trim
  • Throttle Position Sensor — analogue voltage proportional to throttle plate angle
  • Sensor Ground — common reference ground for analogue sensor inputs
  • Air Temperature Sensor — intake air temperature analogue input; used for air-density correction
  • Vehicle Speed Sensor — pulse signal from gearbox output; used for idle-up and fuel cut logic
  • Power Ground (ECCS) — chassis power ground for the ECU’s main power stage (pin 48)
  • Injector #1 — drive signal for cylinder 1 fuel injector
  • Injector #3 — drive signal for cylinder 3 fuel injector
  • Injector #2 — drive signal for cylinder 2 fuel injector
  • Injector #4 — drive signal for cylinder 4 fuel injector
  • Power Ground (ECCS) — chassis power ground for the ECU’s injector drive stage (pin 116)
