Title: Engine bay connector near coil
Post by: Masejoer on October 09, 2019, 04:24:43 PM
I've never known where this goes to - does anyone know? Located coming out of the harness near the ignition coil. It has two of the four wires that go into a larger black connector, which has 4 total pins.

I've been through many areas of the EVTM looking for the red/yellow black/white 2-pin connector. The connector has round pins and very red (not pink), so it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the washer fluid reservoir. Most everything else in the EVTM has nothing to do with that part of the vehicle. I expected washer fluid or something with cruise control.

Maybe just the "washer pump test connector"? EVTM doesn't show any red wire though.

I know this one! Its the coolant temp switch for an electronic cluster. Page 136 of the 88 wiring diagram shows it

Thanks! So a useless connector on my car.
