Stepper motor? listed on wiring diagram but not in index?

I dont see this part. I have the 6 pin connector in the body harness, I am stripping every non essential part and running the wires through the frame rails. So I need to know what it is to know if I need to extend it. I searched the posts, I read the manual but it is listed in wiring diagram as "stepper motor" and I cant find it in the index or anywhere else. the plug is near the main underhood fuse block. Any help appreciated.

The stepper motor is on the power steering pump. It varies assistance according to road speed.

The stepper motor is on top of the power steering pump, with the six wires coming out the front of it. Hard to miss.

OK so stepping motor is supposed to be on the power steering pump... but I dont seem to have one? Is it possible that J-spec didn't come with speed sensing power steering?

Your PM said it was an S5 pump. Some S5's came with conventional power steering which has no stepper motor. If the pump only has two lines instead of three then that's what it is.
