Car running with ignition off and key removed
Time to strip the steering column cowl and see if you can disconnect the ignition. Depending on the series there is a few designs of ignition, hopefully you get lucky and its just a plugin job Series 1 i believe was hard soldered, below picture is from series 2 and 3/4, white plug is from a series 3/4 and the black was a series 2 that i assisted in breaking. Start the zed pull the plug and see if it stays on.

Has it got an Alarm with a remote start feature ? Only 2 things i can think of that can interfere with the ignition are a Turbo Timer and Alarm.

Central Locking Retrofit
Central Locking : Yes (drivers door locks both sides) Remote central locking : No prior to 1994 series 3/4 Most original fobs have likely been lost too so lots of people fit after market toad alarms or other devices.

It can, but easier doing it now when the engine is out. I had to remove the air con condenser unit under the dash to get the old loom out. This would be tricky on most zeds as you need to degass the air con.

Lastly started to fit the new engine loom and get it seated nice. I like how it has updated sensor plugs included, below is the IAT sensor.

Also time to swap out the old oil cooler for a new, don't trust the old one as it was part of the blown engine. The one on the left is the new unit.

Water pipes now done, had to wait for new hose to arrive before i got this done. Feel free to do a sanity check on this setup to ensure its done right !

Yes, Already have those to fit, i also had new fittings welded to the exhaust but the guy i used put them in the wrong place. I've been told factory downpipe location is too close and can lead to early failure of the senors.

Interesting facts about the Pro version of this loom; they have moved the PTU to the start of the loom; near the ECU end.

few new parts to fit in the next week or so; Starting off with new water pipes machines from aluminum. Then new linkage for the throttle bodies as the crumbled when i took them to bits. Lastly we have a new engine wiring and starter loom. Slight upgrade on the loom as this one was custom made and has extra connections for sensors and after market solenoids so they can be picked up by my Link G4.

What did you do to your zed today?
My zed spent its first night outside last night as i'm doing a bit of a refurb on my garage space. Fitting a new workbench made from solid oak, so to make room she was pushed out onto the stones.

NEC 2023 - looking for volunteers.....
Should be dropping my engine in within the next few weeks so i'm fairly confident to get mine running soon, All i'm waiting for is the plenum and water pipes to be polished again. Plenty of time to know for sure so i'd like to put mine forward to be on the stand.

Central Locking Retrofit
Easiest way i guess would be to install an after market alarm that has an actuator, with the most common type being a toad Ai606. Fitted a toad to ever zed i have owned so far but they are also now discontinued.

Managed to find a guy in Glasgow who's going to do it all for me, drop it off to him in a weeks time. So back to twiddling my thumbs while we wait, could be another few weeks now. On the other side of the country concept are prepping a new order of a few things i'm missing.
