I have looked many times, but all I find is a few pins used for programming. Power, CAN high/low. And MED17 apparently isnt enough info. From what I found the .1 .3 .7 or whatever there are, can have different pinouts. Can't say the spark pins are different since Ive never seen them, but fyi.

Okay, thanks - it's a MED17.7.1 if that helps whomever has this info.
The other is MHH Auto, *******.com, which is more of a darkish web forum. Lots of info there, so if it exists, this is where I'd look. I did look and found nothing, but can't say I looked very hard. And to post there you have be a member, which is like $25?
Fk, I figured they'd block it, so ******* dot com
damit! m h h a u t o dot com
I care! Thanks You can pinout the whole ECU if you like, while I sit on the couch and wait
For future use; I found this link saved as an info source but I can't get in to read anything. I guess you have to sign up now? https://ecuconnections.com/forum It's more above board but it's something.
And this one: http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php as the name implies it's more darkish like MHH Auto
Here you go........ M278 ECM N3/10 wiring diagram. 3 sheets. attached as PDF
There are 2 connectors at the ECM, one is M and one is F.
M is engine connector aka ECM to all engine sensor + components. 2 sheets/pages.
F is vehicle connector aka ECM to Front SAM fuse box and some others like radiator fan etc etc. 1 sheet/page.
The COP is a 4 wire version, with built-in driver or electronic switch. So ECM does not need to handle the near 20 amps power surge to COP, that is direct fuses from Front SAM.
The pins you tested in blue and my comment in orange:
Signal from the larger PCM harness to coils (for me... maybe all M278/157, not sure):
Cyl 1: pin 9
Cyl 2: pin 33
Cyl 3: pin 34
Cyl 4: pin 35
Cyl 5: pin 10
Cyl 6: pin 32
Cyl 7: pin 11
Cyl 8: pin 8 Above are the 5 volts trigger to the COP driver
Coil connector:
Pin 1: +12V? ---- Power ground to Z6z1 or z2 harness, which is Main Ground ( negative ) called circuit 31 connector sleeve Pin 2: ground ---- Signal ground to W11 which is ECM ground Pin 3: ? --- +12V main positive power. Fuse 23 or Fuse 24 depending on which Bank the COP is at. Per Bank ( 4 COPs ) get 1 fuse. Pin 4: signal from PCM --- 5V trigger signal for driver
---------------------
See below for the COP pins assignment M278
Your M278
Actually the COP also has a small copper pin which is negative/ground at its body and bolt ring, touching the cylinder head.
The bulk of the near 20 amps power COP required, a lot is handled by that small copper pin and bolt ring.
So what do you want to actually do with the COPs ?
I can help you.
