Title: What's this thing do?
Post by: Ether947 on November 03, 2005, 08:26:33 PM
I took this pic a while ago. I just happened to look at it tonite and realized that that connector seems to be not connected. Does anyone know what it is for?

looks like its for reverse lights, their are only 2 connectors i think, one is reverse, and the other is vss. if its 2 wires, its reverse lights.

ok look at where you'r selecter  valve is  directly above that should be a harness with a female plug for that to plug into if not.. there should be a plug sticking strait up if you see or feel that then you'r missing the haress i have one and can post pix of the plug later if you need em

Bear, he has a stick, I beleive you will have to feal up on top of the transmission for your hidden connector.

Edit,  Hmm looking at the full size pic it looks like that has never been hooked up.
