1.0   INTRODUCTION
      You have purchased what we at Perfect Performance Products, Inc. believe to be the most
      up-to-date and easiest-to-install automotive fuel injection harness on the market. It is
      designed for easy installation, even if you have no electrical experience.
      This harness is designed to be a complete wiring system for the fuel injection system on
      General Motors tuned port (5.0L and 5.7L) injection engines. This includes all wiring
      that is needed by the computer to run and control the fuel injection system.
      Most of the wiring in the harness has been pre-terminated to the proper connector and all
      wire is rated at 125°C and has been GM color-coded.
      These fuel system harnesses have been divided into three major groups:
      ENGINE GROUP                        Includes wiring for the fuel injectors, distributor,
                                          sensors and tail section.

3.0   TOOLS NEEDED
      In addition to your regular tools, you will need, at least, the following:
              Crimping Tool          Note: Use a quality tool to avoid over-crimping.
              Wire Stripper
              Continuity Tester      Caution: Do not use a test light to test the computer or
                                     sensor wiring or you will damage the computer.
              Electric Drill
              1-1/4" Hole saw        (for the rubber grommet in the firewall)
      •      The physical routing, positioning, and securing of the harness, wire groups, and
             individual wires and connectors.
      •      The proper electrical connection of the individual circuits.
      These two major tasks are not separate steps, but are integrated together. That is, you will
      route some wires and make some connections, route some more wires and make some
      more connections.
      We cannot tell you how to physically route the harness in your automobile. That depends
      a great deal upon the particular make of automobile and to what extent you want to
      secure and conceal the harness. We do offer some general guidelines and routing
      practices starting in Paragraph 4.3, GENERAL installation instructions in Section 5.0,
      and precise instructions concerning the electrical connections you will have to make
      beginning in Section 6.0. To help you begin thinking through the installation of your
      wire harness, read the following sections:
                     a.      Are you going to use a 700 R4 Lockup Transmission that you want
                             the computer to control the lockup on?
                     b.      Does the engine have to be emissions legal; i.e. does the EGR
                             valve and /or air solenoid, and diverter valve need to be connected
             If you answered yes to either or both of these questions then you must connect the
             wires labeled VSS to a vehicle speed sensor that will provide a two (2) or four (4)
             pulse signal to the computer. On the early model tuned port the sensor should
             output a square wave and on the late model tuned port engines it should provide a
             sine wave output. Painless Wiring offers a VSS for either application, that will
             allow you to use your cable drive speedometer (if applicable)
             If you answered no to both of these questions then you may choose not to use a
             vehicle speed sensor. Please note, there is the possibility of drivability issues,
             unless the VSS is installed.
                                               2
If you are going to use a vehicle speed sensor, take the orange/black and
black/white wires in the dash section (labeled for the park/neutral indicator
switch) and connect them to the Park/Neutral Indicator Switch, which is designed
to tell the computer the transmission is in park, as instructed in 6.1.4, and
Figure 6.5. Do not connect the wires together.
Important:      The orange/black and black/white wires in the dash section that
               are labeled for the park/neutral indicator switch are to be
               connected to the park/neutral indicator switch, NOT A
               NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH. Under no circumstances should
               you connect these wires to a neutral safety switch. (A part/neutral
               indicator switch is a switch that tells the computer when the
               vehicle is in park or neutral, but a neutral safety switch is a switch
               that keeps the vehicle from starting unless it is in park or neutral.)
               You should never connect the orange/black and black/white wires
               to the vehicle speed sensor wiring.
If you are not going to use a vehicle speed sensor then you will take the
orange/black and black/white wires in the dash section (labeled for the
park/neutral indicator switch) and connect them together.
4.1.1   If you do NOT wish to use the lockup function, tape off and store the
        single purple wire, marked brake switch, in the dash group and the 4-
        position square connector in the tail section.
4.1.2   If you ARE going to use the lockup circuit then you MUST have a vehicle
        speed sensor (VSS) and the correct brake switch. These are necessary to
        make the lockup function work correctly. The brake switch should be
        closed (electrically connected) when the brakes ARE NOT being applied
        and open (not electrically connected) when the brakes ARE being applied.
         This is the opposite of a standard brake light switch. The vehicle speed
        sensor lets the computer know how fast the wheels are turning.
4.1.3   Regardless of whether you use the lockup function, the vehicle speed
        sensor (VSS) must be used and is needed by the computer so that it can
        command the emissions control devices on the engine. This part is
        necessary if you want your vehicle to be street-legal.
4.1.4   There are two different VSS harness applications. Early TPI has a single
        brown wire that attaches to one of the two wires coming out of the 60115
        speed sensor and the other wire is connected to ground. The Late TPI has
        two wires, purple and yellow that goes to and attaches to the 60116 sensor
        from the computer.
                                  3
4.2    You should get to know the particular engine that you are using:
Note: Computer chips, on the later model (late 89 and up) tuned port engines all factory
chips have the vehicle anti-theft system (VATS) programmed into them so that they
cannot be used unless the factory steering column, compatible with the computer, was
installed. For the late model tuned port only you must obtain an aftermarket chip that
does not have the VATS programming in it.. For the late model tuned port systems, you
will need to obtain a chip for a 1991 Camaro with the VATS system removed so that it
will be compatible with our harness. Also, GM started using the VATS system in late
1989 so if you are using an 1989 chip on an early style tuned port motor then please be
careful to use a chip that does not have the VATS programmed into it.
                                        4
       4.2.1   The Painless Harness is designed to be used with specific sensors and
               relays. See Table 4.1 on page 7. These will meet all requirements and
               are compatible with Painless Performance harnesses. The following
               numbers given are GM part numbers except for the vehicle speed sensor
               (VSS) which is a Painless Performance number. The main computer part
               numbers are REQUIRED for use with our harnesses. Note: Distributor to
               Coil and the Coil Power/Tach Pigtail are used only if you have a
               “separate coil” distributor.
               The computer part numbers shown in the compatible parts list in Table
               4.1 are required part numbers for that application. The use of any other
               computer may damage the computer, harness or both. Use of the wrong
               computer will almost certainly cause problems. Please double check to be
               sure that you have the correct computer part number (it is shown as a
               service number on the computer itself). The rest of the part numbers
               shown are for your information only.
       4.2.2   If you are using a separate coil type distributor, then you will use the
               distributor adapter included in the kit. You will also need to obtain the
               distributor to coil and coil power/tach pigtails either from your local
               dealer, a wrecking yard or from the original harness. The wiring for the
               separate coil system is shown in Figure 4.2.
4.3    Familiarize yourself with the harness by locating each of the harness groups and
       by looking at the connectors on the wire ends.
4.4    Decide where and how the computer and sensors will be mounted. Painless
       Performance wire harness kits are designed to mount either under the dash or in
       the lower kick panel on the right side. They must be no further apart than the
       wiring will allow (approx. 10 inches). Part numbers 60202 and 60203 will allow
       installation under the front seat.
4.5    A good exercise is to lay out the wire harness on the floor beside your vehicle and
       identify all the connectors and wires. The harness must be routed from the inside
       of the vehicle out to the engine compartment.
4.6    You will want to route the harness through and around open areas. Inside edges
       provide extra protection from hazards and also provide places for tie wraps, clips
       and other support.
4.7    Route the harness away from sharp edges, exhaust pipes, and the hood, trunk, and
       door hinges.
4.8    Plan where harness supports will be located. Use a support approximately every 6
       inches unless the harness routes under the floor carpet.
4.9    Allow enough slack in the harness at places where movement could possibly
       occur (body to frame, frame to engine, etc.).
4.10   The wires should be bundled into harness groups. Use tape, nylon ties or poly-
       split loom.

5.0   GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
      Caution:
           Do not disconnect the battery or the computer connector(s) while the ignition is
            on.
           Do not short any wire in this harness to ground (with the exception of labeled
            ground wires) or damage to the computer will result.
           Giving or receiving a jump-start may damage the computer.
           Do not use a test light when testing computer sensors or computer circuits.
            Damage to the computer will result!
      When routing the wires for the vehicle speed sensor (if used) make certain that they are at
      least 12 inches away from any ignition wiring (spark plug wires, etc.).
      Notes:
             All of the adapters, listed in the manual, are included in the wiring kit. You
              should use or remove them depending on your particular application.
             If you are switching a TPI engine from MAF Sensor to MAP Sensor then you
              must use the new Knock Sensor in Table 4.1.
             An oil pressure SWITCH must be used with this harness. DO NOT BYPASS
              OIL PRESSURE SWITCH WIRES.
             If you are using an oil pressure switch that has two or three small pins surrounded
              by a plastic collar for an electrical connection, an adapter is in the kit.
             There is a normal, small current drain on these fuel injected systems.
             Each connector in this harness is different and will not fit in the wrong place.
              NEVER FORCE ANY CONNECTOR.
             When connecting the plugs to the computer USE EXTREME CARE to make sure
              none of the pins in the computer are or have become bent.
             IF YOU HAVE A GM SEPARATE COIL IGNITION SYSTEM ON YOUR
              ENGINE: use the adapter in the kit.
             FOR YOUR DISTRIBUTOR: The power wire used on the previous distributor
              should work fine as long as there is no ignition resistor in the circuit. It must be a
              fused power wire (14 ga. minimum) that is HOT (+12V) when the ignition switch
              is in the START AND RUN positions. Connect it to the terminal on the
              distributor cap labeled BAT or to the pink wire on the separate Coil Ignition
              System. This wire provides power to the ignition coil. YOUR AUTOMOBILE
              WILL NOT START OR RUN WITHOUT IT.
             The connector for ignition timing adjustment is located near the computer
               connection. This is a black plastic connector in the tan/black wire
             The fuel pump you are using MUST be rated at a minimum of 45 pounds PSI
              (per square inch) for tuned port systems.
             If you have headers you may have to relocate the knock sensor for proper
              clearance. See Figure 6.9.
                                                    7
Note: The oil pressure switch wires are designed to be connected to an oil pressure
switch, not the oil pressure sending unit. An oil pressure sending unit is for a gauge or an
indicator light and will only have one terminal on the top. The stock oil pressure switch
is cigar shaped and has three terminals. If you wish to use the stock oil pressure switch
then you will use the oil pressure switch adapter included with this kit. On the oil
pressure switch adapter there are two wires that match the wire colors coming from our
harness and there is also an extra wire.
The extra wire is for the factory oil pressure gauge or indicator light, depending on what
the switch was originally designed for. You may also obtain a smaller oil pressure switch
if you have clearance problems with the original oil pressure switch. This type of switch
has two male connectors that will plug directly into the harness.
       5.1.1   Connect a ground strap or cable (minimum of a 2-gauge wire) from the
               negative battery terminal to the engine block.
       5.1.2   Connect a ground strap from the engine to the chassis (frame). DO NOT
               RELY UPON THE MOTOR MOUNTS TO MAKE THIS
               CONNECTION.
       5.1.3   Connect a ground strap from the engine to the body.
       Note: Harness routing and shaping is, and should be a time-consuming task.
             Taking your time will enhance the reliability and appearance of your
             installation. Please be patient and take your time.
       5.3.1 Permanently mount computer. You should mount the parts (sensors,
             relays, etc.) that will be used for your engine at this time. These parts will
             vary by application.
                                         8
      5.3.2   Mold harness groups to the contour of the dash, engine, frame, etc.
              Remember to route the harness away from sharp edges, exhaust pipes,
              hinges, and moving parts.
      5.3.3   Attach harness groups to your automobile with clips or ties starting at the
              computer and working your way outward.
      Note: Do not tighten tie wraps or mounting devices at this time. Make all
            harness attachments LOOSELY.
      5.3.4   When used every 1-1/2" or so on the visible areas of the harness, plastic
              wire ties make a very attractive assembly. Otherwise, a tie installed in
              other areas every 6" or so will hold the wires in place securely.
              REMEMBER TO TAKE YOUR TIME.
      Note: In the following steps you will be making the circuit connections.
            Before you start, you should carefully read Sections 6.0 through 8.0, as
            applicable, and continually refer to the wire connection charts,
            DOUBLE CHECKING your length calculations before cutting any wire
            or making any connections. These directions are for the wires which do
            not have a connector already installed on them.
      Note: In the following step, make sure that the terminal is crimped with the
            proper die in the crimping tool. An improper crimp will not make a
            good connection. DO NOT OVER CRIMP.
      Caution:       Be sure the ignition is off when you reconnect the battery or you
                     will damage the computer.
                                       9
6.0    SPECIFIC CIRCUIT CONNECTIONS
Note: If you have not already done so, read Sections 4.0 and 5.0 of these instructions
      and think through the installation of the harness before securing or cutting any
      wires.
       The wires in this group consist of the assembly line diagnostic link (ALDL)
       connector (See Figure 6.3), the check engine light (pre-mounted into a mounting
       bracket), and four other wires.
       Note:      You may need to connect the check engine light wires to their mates
                  in the wire harness.
       Caution: Do not make any connections while the computer is plugged into the
                harness.
       Note:      Wire color (example: Blk/Wht) is one wire with a stripe. The second
                  color (the stripe) may not be bold. Observe all two-color wires
                  closely.
               6.1.1    Find a suitable location to mount the ALDL connector (using the
                        bracket that the check engine light is mounted in) that will allow
                        access to the front of the connector and still allow you to see the
                        check engine light while driving.
               6.1.2    Mount the ALDL connector.
               6.1.3.   Locate the Pnk/Blk wire and attach it to a 12V fused power
                        source. POWER IS REQUIRED WHEN THE KEY IS IN
                        THE RUN AND START POSITION. This is the power wire
                         for the computer.
                                        10
           Figure 6.4 A &B Neutral Safety Switch
      6.1.4    Locate the Orn/Blk and Blk/Wht wires in the dash group. These
               two wires are for the Park/Neutral Selector Switch, NOT the
               Neutral Safety Switch. If you have a GM column then you can
               use the combination switch P/N 15679680 and wire it as shown
               in FIGURE 6.4.
Note: If you do this, the computer will stop controlling the exhaust gas
      recirculation (EGR) solenoid. THIS WILL PREVENT THE SYSTEM
      FROM BEING STREET LEGAL
                              11
       6.1.6. The recommended switch is a combination reverse light AND
              neutral safety switch. You may use it for these purposes AND for
              the needed computer signal. If you wire it EXACTLY as shown in
              Figure 6.4B. You will need to tape off and store the Blk/Wht wire
              in this case.
       6.1.7. If you are going to use the recommended switch for the computer's
       benefit ONLY, then you will wire it as shown in Figure 6.4A.
       6.1.8   You may install your own switch. This switch must connect the
               Orn/Blk wire to ground ONLY when the car is in PARK. You may
               or may not want to use the Blk/Wht wire. The other end of the
               Blk/Wht wire is already connected to ground through the harness.
Note: Not attaching the orn/blk wire to anything may turn on the check engine
      light
      6.1.9    The single purple wire is the wire that powers the lockup function
               on the transmission. If you ARE NOT using the lockup then you
               will tape off and store this wire. If you ARE using the
                transmission lockup function then you will have to install a vehicle
                speed sensor and a brake switch as described in Paragraph 4.1.2.
     6.1.10. If you are using the recommended brake switch then you will wire
             it according to Figure 6.5. The wire jumped to the back of the
             switch in the illustration is the wire that has power on it whether or
             not the brake is being applied. If you have installed your own
             switch then it must connect the single purple wire to power ONLY
             when the brakes are NOT being applied. If you are using a
             hydraulic brake switch see page 33 for proper wiring using a relay.
                              A.     Take the wiring that was previously routed to the sensors and
                                     connect it according to Table 6.2

      The following optional parts are not included in the kit but are available from Painless
      Performance.
            Emission Control Device Harnesses. (Part #60312 or 60313)
             The engine group is designed to be separated into left side (driver) and right side
             (passenger) sections. Each side is tie wrapped separately, BUT NOT LABELED.
             The right side of the engine has the connectors for the idle air control, throttle
             position sensor, cold start switch, and coolant temp sensor, all of which ARE
             labeled. When you begin routing, FIRST separate the engine group into left and
             right sections and place them accordingly.
             7.2.1   Before you connect any wires, separate the tail section from the engine
                     group and place it out of the way.
             7.2.2   Locate the two Blk/Wht wires in the harness that end in a single, large ring
                     terminal and ground them to the engine.
             7.2.3   Using Figure 7.5, Table 6.1 and the specific illustrations indicated in
                     Table 6.1, connect the wiring as directed.
             7.2.4   Green wire tagged A/C POWER attaches to the A/C compressor power
                     wire at the compressor if the vehicle is so equipped. This will increase the
                     engine idle RPM when the A/C is turned on.
                                           16

 Notes:
 1.   On tuned port injection engines, the injectors, cold start switch, and cold start injector all use a connector that simply
      pushes on. Do not remove the silver attaching clip or the connector may come loose.
 2.   If you have headers, you may have to relocate the knock sensor for proper clearance.
 3.   These wires are on EARLY version tuned port systems ONLY.
 4.   Do NOT confuse this with the cold start switch.
 5.   The "A/C POWER" wire on both early and late version tuned port systems should be spliced into the A/C compressor
       power wire near the compressor. If you do not have A/C then tape and store this wire. This wire senses power to the
       compressor and automatically increases the idle speed of the engine when the A/C is turned on.

       9.0    PRE-ADJUSTMENTS BEFORE STARTING ENGINE
       If you are having trouble with your engine running badly or not running at all, first
       perform basic trouble shooting (checking for faulty connections, spark, timing, fuel
       pressure, etc.) then see is the computer has stored a trouble code in its memory.
              Normally, the "check engine" light should come on when the ignition is initially
              turned on, then go out a few moments after the engine starts running. If it
              reappears, or stays on while the engine is running, the computer has detected a
              problem and a trouble code has been set.
                                                23
       10.1.1 The computer identifies particular trouble codes by flashing the "check
              engine" light in a certain way. The codes are read by counting the flashes:
              A.      The first digit (the "tens" digit) of the code is flashed quickly,
                      followed by a brief pause, then the second digit (or "ones" digit) is
                      flashed, followed by a longer pause. For example, three (3) quick
                      flashes followed by a brief pause followed by two (2) flashes
                      indicates code 32.
              B.      The code will repeat itself three (3) times. The next code, if any,
                      will be displayed in the same manner.
              Note: When you access the codes from the computer a code 12 (one
                    flash followed by two flashes) will first be displayed. THIS
                    DOES NOT INDICATE A PROBLEM. Code 12 will be flashed
                    3 times, followed by the particular trouble codes, if any. If the
                    computer merely flashes code 12 there are no trouble codes
                    stored. Code 12 means the engine is not running.
       10.2.1 In order to retrieve the trouble codes stored in the computer, locate the
              Assembly Line Diagnostic Link (ALDL) connector (installed and
              connected in Paragraph 6.1.1). Turn the ignition on, BUT DO NOT
              START THE CAR. Connect a jumper wire from ALDL terminal "A" to
              terminal "B" (see Figure 6.3) and observe the "check engine" light.
       10.2.2 After you have read any codes (remember the normal code 12), write them
              down for reference. Remove the jumper wire from the ALDL connector.
       10.2.3 Take the codes one at a time and match them to the codes in Table 9.1.
              This will tell you in which circuit the computer has detected a problem.
       10.2.4 Before taking more extensive corrective actions for any trouble code,
              make sure that all connections on the indicated circuit, INCLUDING THE
              COMPUTER, are clean and tight. Inspect the wiring in the circuit for any
              broken, shorted, or exposed wires. Finally, insure all ground wires are
              clean and secure.
       10.2.5 If you are getting a code from your computer and need to clear the code,
              other than code 12, after you have replaced a part, readjusted a part, etc.
              You can do this by making sure the ignition is off and then disconnecting
              the negative battery cable for a minimum of two minutes. After the two
              minutes are up then you simply reconnect the negative battery cable and
              recheck the system for codes.
                                        24
 CODE #              CIRCUIT AFFECTED                          CODE #            CIRCUIT AFFECTED
       1
  34                 Mass Airflow or Manifold                  54                Insufficient Fuel Pump Voltage7
                     Absolute Pres. Sensor (low)
           Notes:
           1.     Your engine will use either a mass airflow sensor and burn off circuit OR a manifold
                  absolute pressure sensor.
           2.     A PROM, Mem-Cal or Cal-Pak chip that has not been fully seated or that has a bent
                  contact may cause one or all of these codes to set.
           3.     If the Park/Neutral Indicator switch isn't wired correctly this code can set.
           4.     Early version TPI and TBI systems only.
           5.     Can be caused by a clogged fuel filter or a vacuum leak.
           6.     Can be caused by a clogged air filter.
           7.     Can be caused by a bad fuel pump relay.

       The emissions wires in this kit include: the wiring for the charcoal canister, the air
       port solenoid the air pump diverter valve, and the EGR diagnostic temperature
       sensor. (See Diagram 2, page 29).
       The red connector with the Dk.Grn/Ylw and Blk/Pnk wires, plugs into the
       charcoal canister mounted in the engine compartment.
       The black connector with the Blk/Red and Blk/Pnk wires, plugs into the air port
       solenoid located on the back of the air pump.
       The gray connector with the Brn and Blk/Pnk wires, plugs into the air pump
       diverter valve located behind the air pump.
       The black connector with the single Dk.Grn wire plugs into the EGR valve
       diagnostic temperature connector located under the center of the intake plenum.
       Caution: Be careful routing the wires through the firewall to avoid damaging
       the terminals on the ends of the wires.
                                       26
STEP 3 - ATTACHING THE B+ POWER WIRES
You will find that the three Blk/Pnk wires, end near the back of the engine block.
These wires should be spliced into the Pnk/Blk wire coming from the EGR
solenoid connector. These wires can also be extended and connected to a 12 volt
ignition only (switched) power source if you wish to do so.
First making sure that the ignition is off, unplug the two computer connectors by
pushing down on the blue retaining tab and then pulling straight out and away
from the computer. Be careful not to damage the computer pins! Remove the blue
secondary locks from the black computer connectors by releasing the retaining
clips and pulling them out from the back (wire) side of the connectors.
Note: The terminal will only fit one way into the connector; do not try to force
the terminal.
STEP 6 - CONNECTING THE AIR PORT SOLENOID WIRE AT THE
COMPUTER
On the same connector, locate "A-2". This is the opening that you plug the
terminal on the Brn wire (port solenoid) into, using the same procedure as in step
5.
Note: this wire has a second Brn wire spliced into it that should be set aside
until Step 10.
                                27
STEP 9 - REPLACING THE COMPUTER CONNECTORS AT THE
COMPUTER
Replace the secondary locks on both connectors. Be careful to line up the
"fingers" on the locks with the connector openings. Once you have the secondary
locks in place then you can reinstall the computer connectors into the computer.
Caution: use care when reinstalling the connectors, to avoid damaging the
computer pins.
STEP 10 - ATTACHING THE AIR PUMP DIAGNOSTIC WIRE AT THE
ALDL
The brown wire set aside in step 6 goes to the ALDL connector (diagnostic plug).
 Route this brown wire along the existing ALDL wiring until you come to the
connector itself. The wire is inserted into the opening labeled "C" on the
connector. (See Diagram 2, page 29)
Notes: Double check all routing making sure that there is enough slack to
allow for any engine or other movement. Reinstall any grommets or other parts
taken off.
Start and drive the vehicle for at least thirty minutes, then check for any trouble
codes stored in the computer.

12.0   ADD ON LATE TPI EMISSIONS KIT
       (For Part #60103 use Painless #60314 and for Part #60203 use Painless #60315)
       The emissions wires in this kit include: the wiring for the charcoal canister, the air
       port solenoid and the air pump diverter valve. (See Diagram 3, page 32).
   The red connector with the Dk.Grn/Ylw and Blk/Pnk wires, plugs into the charcoal
   canister mounted in the engine compartment.
   The black connector with the Blk/Red and Blk/Pnk wires, plugs into the air port
   solenoid located on the back of the air pump.
   The gray connector with the Brn and Blk/Pnk wires, plugs into the air pump diverter
   valve located behind the air pump.
   Caution: Be careful routing the wires through the firewall to avoid damaging the
   terminals on the ends of the wires.
   First making sure that the ignition is off, unplug the three computer connectors by
   pushing down on the blue retaining tab and then pulling straight out and away from
   the computer. Be careful not to damage the computer pins! Remove the blue
   secondary locks from the yellow computer connector by releasing the retaining clips
   and pulling them out from the back (wire) side of the connector.
                                        30
STEP 5 - CONNECTING THE CHARCOAL CANISTER WIRE AT THE
COMPUTER
Using the attached wiring diagram for reference, look on the wire side of the
connector housing for the corner marked "F-1". Once you have located this, count
down the openings on the same side until you reach "F-7". You will insert the
terminal on the Dk.Grn/Ylw wire (charcoal canister) into this opening, pushing in
until the locking tang engages.
Note: The terminal will only fit one way into the connector; do not try to force the
terminal.
Caution: use care when reinstalling the connectors, to avoid damaging the
computer pins.
Notes: Double-check all routing making sure that there is enough slack to allow
for any engine or other movement. Reinstall any grommets or other parts taken
off.
Start and drive the vehicle for at least thirty minutes, then check for any trouble
codes stored in the computer.
