Dre city Goblin build - 06 LS Donor

IIRC the tan plug is the black plug in the video.

 

[Dre]

In part 12 of the video at the very beginning, is that ground lug connected to the blue plug? If so, my lug has 4 wires total going to it. One goes into the blue plug, one goes to the cigarette lighter (which I plan to keep), one is free and i think the last one goes to the sub.

I don't recall exactly. My recommendation is to not remove any ground wires unless it's dedicated to a circuit you know you won't use e.g. the accessory plugs--bad example. Any ground wires that go directly from a ground point to the plugs should NOT be removed.

 

[Dre]

I guess i'll add 3 extra ground wires to the lug (making it 7 total) and finish up the video.

 

[Dre]

I don't have the engine connector like the one in video 12 @ 5:08 time marker. I think mine is the one posted. Can anyone confirm?

Looks like mine but without the brown wire, the black and tan/tan wires are important . I found this site had some good info for filling in missing info from videos.

Cool... thanks!

That doesn't look like the engine connector. I think the one you are looking for should have 8 pins. That looks like the MAF plug.

 

[Dre]

I'll check when I get home... I have like 4 different wiring harnesses. Dash Harness, main harness, engine harness, and I cant remember the last one.

 

[Dre]

I just checked and that is not the MAF plug

The top plug on the website you sent is the exact plug.

 

[Dre]

Looking at the videos and what not, and realizing that my car does not have ABS or onstar, the wiring harness is fairly different.

 

[TheNuker]

Is it the throttle body plug?

Nuker-

Yeah, these are different on a lot of models, yours is like mine body harness to engine c101. As long as you can find the other end you will be good.

 

[Dre]

Did you cut the twisted wire on the opposite end like in the video?... Also, my AC wire is very short.

 

[Dre]

Is it the throttle body plug?

Nuker-

I found out it's my body harness plug.

On a side note... My frame finished on 06/22/2018 and is scheduled for pickup from the freight company on 06/29/2018. I decided to go ahead and pay for everything out right in order to save on shipping and just have everything. I still need to finish the wiring harness and cleaning/painting of my donor parts.

Parts ordered:
2 Rear Hubs
2 Lower control arms
Themostat
Head Gasket kit
Timing chain
Starter
Valve cover gasket
Manual E-Brake
E-brake handle
USB accessory port
2 Seats with 5 point harnesses

Parts needed still (for me):
Serpentine Belt
Head light, Tail light
Side mirrors
Wheels & tires
Switches for

 

[Dre]

I'm painting my frame blue. I'm debating whether to make my switch panel black or blue. I will have 7 switches, one usb, and one volt meter. Pictures of almost finished product.

 

[Dre]

Am i safe to assume this is the headliner plug? If so, do i remove all the wires including the ground and big purple one?

 

[Dre]

Just received confirmation that I can go pick up my kit from the shipping terminal on tuesday!
On a side note... Part 14 of the videos at the 6:34 time mark. I can't find that connector thats on the steering column. Can someone post a photo for me or tell me what its used for?
