While i have my whole harness open i wondered if i could remove every cruise control wire. I just going to start from computer under driver side and depin them all. I didnt know since it goes off speed sensor would it throw check engine light. Any one ever do this.

I plan on deleteing window washer,i did all abs,cruise control and powersteering. I fear wires are eletronically tied together with another thing.

You can remove the whole cruise control system and wiring. There's nothing dependant on it to function.

How would i know on a diagram or schematic that a wires function is depended on.

You would have to download the service manual and look at the electrical section about the cruise control.

I am worried about the white and blue wire tieing into alternator. I depined every wire going to abs plug 100 percent.

What's your reason for worrying about the white/blue wire? Just because its connected to the alternator? Since you already depinned it, try starting your car and come back to let us know.

I'm not sure you should be digging this deep into the electrical wiring of your car considering how little you seem to know about it. I'm also not sure what you exactly gain from doing this.

Well i was following a write up that led me 99 percent there but he cut 2 wires i followed thru and depinned them. And finding how they were joined wires just questioning. My main reason is on a diagram how can u tell when not to cut a wire will it just show like a closed or open circuit or be like a symbol just curious.

Follow the white/blue wire through the harness until it joins with another white/blue wire.

This is why I suggest you shouldn't be messing around with your electrical system, let alone your car in general. This isn't Automotive Mechanics 101. Your question alone exhibits your lack of general automotive knowledge. What your trying to do is not something you do for fun or without knowing what you're doing.

If you depinned the wires like you said and started to remove the abs wires from your harness, you would see the point where the white/blue abs harness wire connects to the white/blue wire that runs to the alternator. The wire isn't joined or split from one wire into a "Y".

Lol yes i didnt plan on really doing this but if u seen the car when i got it. i was not rocking alot of cut wires. But just trying to learn this before im gone to far.The y wires were black and yellow and brown and white and i figured it out i believe thanks bro.

egrunner

Yes i figured it out. You can remove every wire as theres a couple joined but they are not depended on by any other system. Thanks guys

Well my cruise control harness come to find out wires frome abs and cruise lead to check engine light connector.

What wires lead to the CEL connector and if they do, why does it matter? What code are you getting as a result of removing the CC wires?

Besides, there was no use in removing the cruise wiring from the start. The reduced amount of wiring in your car isn't worth the time spent attempting such a task. You've gained nothing for the work you've put in besides the ability to tell people you've done it before.

I think you miss understand this car will be a race car. So i have every wire exposed and i meant following the wires from the cc box towards ecu in cabin harness. Now after depining abs and cc wires including joint wires My 2p service connector has no wires connected to it. Will i be able to just use the 3 wire obd1 scanner plug instead.

egrunner

Dam all this wire work and just figured out how to do wiring and read diagrams. Only way i would of learned is from mistakes but ya black wire is just a ground and brown goes to ecu. And dam also cut vss wire but figured that out to im getting this stuff down.
