Connector identification solved

Well, in trying to track down why the Sport won't start, or more specifically, why the fuel pump won't energize, I found a brown connector near the eec. I'm not sure this is my issue, but in any case, I can't find the connector that it plugs into...

I've looked at my evtm, on page 61, it *appears* to be connector C222, which is the eec power relay terminals.

connector:

wires from it:

the bundle it splices to:

That's what it appears to be alright, you need the relay... The fuel pump will not energize unless the EEC is getting power...

I believe any brown base relay will work(let me verify the color)... I know I have a green one in for my fuel pump that was snagged from another TC's auto dim...

I plugged one in, but I guess it wasn't what I thought. Must've been the fuel door or trunk release...I'll go pop a relay in, and let you know what happens from there...

That issue is solved, I now have fuel pressure.

Main problem is now I have no spark at the plugs. Going to see if the coil is sparking, and if it's not, it's likely something in the ignition switch, from when I had the column out. Nothing happens when I turn the key to start, or even run. As soon as I hook the positive battery cable up, the fuel pump kicks on, and my keyless entry keypad on the door is continually lit up.

Thanks again Tom. :D
