A little back story:
I recently purchased a 91 pathfinder, 4x4, se model, auto transmission. It had been sitting for I am guessing at least a year. The woman who owned it before me hit a deer and smashed the right front pretty good. She also hit a fence after she lost control I believe.
The guy I got it from bought it from her intending to fix the damage and throw some paint at it and sell it. Once in his possesion he found it needed a transmissionm rebuild/replacement. He pulled the tranny and sent it out for rebuilding, only to be involved in a serious accident shortly afterwords, leaving him unable to re-install the transmission when it came back.
So, he paid someone else to put the transmission back in. Whoever this was got the tranny mostly back in and then disappeared. By mostly I mean the thing is bolted up to the engine, torque converter is bolted up, and the crossmember is attached on one side fully (bolts not torqued), and the bolts halfway in on the other side.
Nothing major really. I have done engine/tranny swaps in a lot of vehicles (rabbits, golfs, jettas, an mr2, blazers, various saabs, a conquest).
Now we come to the issue, and what I think scared the dude away. I think he got it bolted back together and realized he had no idea about plugging everything back in and would have to pull the thing again to get at some of the plug locations.
The pathfinder's tranny has apparently 5 or 6 plugs/wires going into it from what I could find looking at a wrecked 94 in a scrapyard.I can only get at the passenger side of the transmission on that wreck and was able to vaguely decipher where 3 plugs go, the rest is a mystery, with the exception of the sensor that bolts in on top of the housing for the transfer case where it attaches to the tail shaft.
So what I need to know is what and where all the wires/plugs go. as previously stated I think I have a clue on 3 of them, but not positive. None of the manuals I have show anything helpful to be honest(chiltons, haynes, fsm), or if they do i missed it.
Thanks in advance for any help I can get, and sorry if this should have been in the garage section instead of here. I intend to duplicate this post on a cpl other nissan/pathfinder forums as well.
