The plug is somewhere underneath the AFM. it's the big sensor lump just behind your air filter box. air flows through it, moves a flap, and a sensor attached to that flap tells the ECU how much air is being sucked into the engine. If that's not plugged in your car will barely run, if at all.
It is a rectangular plug about as wide and as thick as your index finger. very unique plug on the car as far as i know so you can't miss it. here it is on the picture you referenced;
Sorry about this but I believe I stated earlier that the AFM plug was hard to see. Obviously, it's not. I was thinking of something else.
You can check the thing I was thinking of too though. It's some sort of hose connected to the intake pipe; the accordion-looking one connected to the air flow meter just above the red circle I drew in that photo.
Feel underneath the accordion tube and in the middle somewhere there should be a medium sized hose connected to it. I think that's something to do with the vacuum setup.
I hope this makes sense, i'm tired.
BTW, there are vac-line diagrams and electrical diagrams. I dont have the links on me right now but maybe if you need them someone can help. I dont have time to find them right now.
I do have a link to part of Cygnus' site that has a set of vac line diagrams;

ok bedtime that's all I have for now.
i looked for that hose a while back and discovered my car does not have it , it feels like theres a place were it should go on my intake but there isnt a hose and i have no idea where the hose would connect to from the intake if i were to try and replace it =/
