Nah the purple is the craning wire not ignition wire, any pink wire is ignition, red and orange are battery

Check all plugs mate as there will be ignition wires in the bay just use a test light or a multi meter I'd look for ya mate but all my looms are custom I don't have any factory wires any more, what about the plugs for the auto there's 3 clipped on the firewall above the brake booster ect there's heaps man every injector has 12v aswell as most of ya sensors... Check out Insanevl threads he has wiring diagrams on here somewhere
