Replaced BHG. Now have an issue with the harness. Video inside....

[Insomnia]

Ok, so I fixed the BHG, and have been doing pretty good with the TSRM, EPC, and various vacuum line diagrams, but this one is confusing me. On the part of the harness that goes under the intake manifold that has the two grounds (on the engine and starter), brown plug going to starter, and little white plug (with 3 leads) that goes to the transmission there is a plug that is attached to about 18" of harness. It has two leads and is white. Now, i've ran it along the bottom of the car searching for where it goes and am running out of ideas.

I've attached a video to help identify the plug. Please excuse my lapses in concentration. I work nights and am up extremely early today to get my baby running, so i'm a bit out of it. Thanks in advance for your help.

Its the reverse lights. Should be a plug on top of the trans. Will be a pain in the ass to try and plug in with the trans mount boltsed up.

Also there shouldnt be a ground wire on the starter. Just the 12v signal wire and the 12v straight from the battery.

Ok, that makes sense as to why I can't find it. Thank you very much!

Also, for clarification, which ring terminal goes to the starter? I have one with white wires and one with brown wires.

 

[hvyman]

Neither. Those are the ecu grounds and the get bolted to the intake manifold.

There should be a black with blue stripe wire that goes to the starter with a brown connector and a big wire that goes to it directly from the battery.

Ahh. Thank you for helping me. I really appreciate it.

Mods feel free to close thread.

Ill leave it open incase someone has something similar and decides to use this thread instead of making a new one.

It was indeed the back-up light sensor. It's located on the passenger side right before the transmission brace. It goes up over the tranny onto the driver side and mine had decided it crawl back on top of the transmission. I had to loosen the bolts on the brace and lower the transmission about an inch before I could get my hands up there. I then fed it back down onto the driver side and about to put it back on. What a pain in the butt.
