Ok. I'm more than willing to figure out this wiring nightmare.. All I ask is help me identify which harnesses I have (all 3 of them). My 91 SI chassis harness (installed), and the new chassis and engine harness I bought, supposedly from a 90-91 wagon.

All the problems are on the driver side between the engine and chassis harness.


This is the plug on the chassis harness that came with the engine harness (they don't seem to be from the same car)


This is the corresponding plug on the engine harness (obviously not a matched set)



This is the 88si plug on my 91 chassis harness. Notice the two extra wires... the car used to run like this.(with the 88 engine harness)



Finally, this is the new engine harness. I cut the plug off (opps). What are all these extra wires?




I guess if you guys could ID the harnesses, I can figure out the wiring with my chiltons. If you guys want to tell me exactly which go where, I would appreciate it

 

is that last pic of the resistor plug, i think there is two plugs that go there

 

The harness you got out of the waggon, is it a automatic? Im GUESSING the extra wires are for the automatic ****, to show you what gear your in and ****.

Good call. I'm going to have to look at the "extra" plugs on the engine harness.

 

If its auto, there is 1 LESS wire, no extras. The green/blk wire wont be there. fyi

 

figured it all out, except 3 wires that go to 2 unused soclets on the engine harness. One in the back of the block. The other looks like a thermo socket, only it by the distributor. I'll photo them later.
