superfrog13 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 (edited) I was a little too forceful removing the connector from the main circuit board under the window/lock panel on the driver's side and the connector exploded leaving all the plugs free. Does anyone have a picture of the wiring into the connector to help me match up the wires in the replacement connector?

Slartibartfast Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Hopefully someone's got theirs apart. Best I can do is page EL-262 of the '03 service manual, but it looks like a bit of a pain to translate the diagram into a pinout for the plug.

superfrog13 Posted October 19, 2020 Author Share Posted October 19, 2020 Thanks. I stared at this for hours the other day and looking at it again it only gets me about 80% there. I'm not great at reading wiring diagrams. Assuming I know whether G means Green or Grey! I see more descriptions for pins in the diagnostic procedures which gets me a little farther along (But what's the difference between W/B and W/B?). Hopefully, I can make an educated guess as to the last 2 pins that I don't see anywhere else in the guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superfrog13 Posted October 19, 2020 Author Share Posted October 19, 2020 Again, thank you for pointing me toward that. Before, I wasn't sure if I was going to get all the info I needed, so the assurance was helpful. And with a little deductive reasoning, I have it figured out. Forgive my ignorance, but here's what I learned: LG = Light Green L = Blue G = Green B = Black BR = Brown Y = Yellow Y/L = Yellow with Blue stripe G/Y = Green with Yellow stripe and so on... Also, I only counted 14 plugs (not the 16 capacity of the connector) , so I guess I'm covered. Even with the chaos of their being out of the connector, the general order that were holding made it fairly clear which W/B is which - one is thicker gauge (pos. 7) than the other (pos. 2). Mocked it all up in the broken connector and tested the layout - EVERYTHING WORKS! So, when the new connector arrives, I'll be ready. Thank you. Thank you.

Slartibartfast Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Good job sorting it out! L = blue took me a while too. There's a key somewhere in the manual, but I didn't know that at first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
