Who can help identify wires?

rasalibre · September 15th, 2009, 01:38 AM

I am finishing my wiring and I have came a cross some loose ends... This is not the original harness, my car was a 4CYL 1988 LX and the harness is out of a 5.0 L 1989 LX.

1. (A) These are located on the driver side by the coil and strut tower.

1. (B) Colors of wires.

2. (A) This is located in the same area.

2. (B) Side shot of plug.

3. (A) This is located on the passenger side by the fuel rail.

3. (B) Side shot of plug.

ANY HELP WOULD BE AWESOME...

Thanks guys - Joe

I think the square one in the first pic is for your coolant level sensor that is supposed to be attached to your overflow cap. But it doesn't look like you have a cap with a sensor.

I don't think that plug in the second pic goes to anything. I remember my friend's 86 had two plugs like that by the coil. One connected to a wire that went to the solenoid I think and the other just layed there.

Pic#1-4 are all diagnostic... they dont plug into anything except a code scanner

No, there is a connector like that behind the strut tower which is for code reading and there is another one or two by the coil/solenoid. I'll go look at my car in a sec but I remember working on my friend's and I was like wtf

The first one goes inside the fenderwell and its for the washer fluid reservoir motor.

93hatch · September 15th, 2009, 04:18 PM

yup 3 and 4 is for the koer test shits

rasalibre · September 15th, 2009, 10:24 PM

So I have cooler temp and code reading...?

92twotone · September 15th, 2009, 10:45 PM

#1=washer fluid reservoir
#2, not sure but looks like the horn plug but i cant quite remember.

rasalibre · September 15th, 2009, 10:51 PM

what about the last 2 photos? times like this makes me wish i had 5.0 friends who were close to figure this out the easy way

92twotone · September 15th, 2009, 10:59 PM

i might be wrong, but I thought the sensor in the last 2 pics plugged into the small black wire that comes off of the negative cable on the starter solenoid. im not positive though. best of luck...im in the same boat as you right now, its frustrating i know.

rasalibre · September 15th, 2009, 11:02 PM

Thanks anyway... ill go check... the wire is BLK/GRN its about 10G also

e3sean · September 15th, 2009, 11:05 PM

looks like a bunch of bs that doesnt matter if you saw how many plugs and wires i ripped out of my car you would shit bricks..

92twotone · September 15th, 2009, 11:14 PM

e3sean im in the same boat as you....so much unused crap, i just left it all in there though its just unplugged.

rasalibre · September 15th, 2009, 11:15 PM

the next project will hopefully be wired correctly.

Nope. That's behind the strut tower by the firewall. I looked at my car before work today and mine has the test plug and the one near the solenoid/coil and it's not plugged into anything like in the OP's pic

rasalibre · September 15th, 2009, 11:31 PM

yeah there is 2 that look the same, I know about the one behind the strut tower... this sucks... im scared to try to start it...

The one by the solenoid and starter doesn't go to anything on my car so I wouldn't worry about that.
