Need Some Help Identifying These Wires
 
2 Attachment(s)
I would appreciate any help any of you can give me regarding some wires I have which the previous owner cut. Six wires, located driver's side engine compartment, Coming into from the fender right under the cruise control actuator (near the clutch master cylinder. I have included several photos.

Just a little history on the car -

was an auto trans and converted to manual.

presently wired for a Microtech LT10s / X4. so none of the original emissions harness remains and part of the engine (alternator harness) harness has been jiggered with.

the coils are being powered by the Microtech harness, not the coil harness coming off the engine harness.

lastly, the fuel pump relay system has been replaced with direct wired fuel pump - always on.

I would like to convert back to a PowerFC, have been rebuilding an emissions harness, probably still need an engine harness, and would sure like to know what I have to do with these.

I have been studying the wiring diagrams, the wire colors seem to be similar to what is found in the X-12 connector. Maybe have something to do with the ignitor?

Anyway wire colors are:

light green
light green / red
light green / black
light green / white
brown
brown / black

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Jeff

Yes, those are the wires to the Igniter that sits under the master cylinder area. You should also have a Black/White wire down there too.

B/W Wire
 
Thanks for the reply Tom. I saw in the manual that there are 7 wires going into the ignitor. You're right I am missing the B/W one. I believe it comes from the condensor. Should it also be in the harness coming out the fender opening or will it come from somewhere else?

I don't know what the condensor looks like or where it is mounted. Could you give me some help there too?

Or maybe the Microtech X4 didn't need it and it was stripped when the these wires were cut and the ignitor removed?

Thanks again Tom,

Jeff

So I stripped a little more insulation (tape) on the harness and found this wire. I believe it is the B/W I need. They had spliced into it and ran it into the Mircotech ignition side, don't know what it did.

Is that little black box on the fender the condensor? Is it OEM or Microtech? If it is, the wire from it runs into the harness going through the opening in the fender and I presume into the cabin.

So maybe if I splice these 7 wires into the ignitor connector and mount the ignitor I'll be good to go?

Thanks,

Jeff

Good, you found the B/W and also that is your condenser there. Please put your Ignitor back where it was.
