I’m not a drinking man but thinning of the harness my turn me into one
I’m not to the point of cutting my first wire and feel lost? My donor is a 2010 basic LS with no power anything.
Example: I believe the photo below looks similar to the one called ”Brake Connector“?
1. It has some twisted Tan & Brown wires
2. Does not have a thick ground wire
3. Directions state “one by one cut and remove the remaining twisted pairs of wires from the connector. I only see two set of twisted wires with all the rest being un twisted.
Little late for me to say this now, but just in case you haven’t fully stripped the loom yet: relabel all the connectors as you’re stripping the loom so you can look and be like “ah brake connector because I still have it labeled”
I still have everything mostly labeled just seems all the wiring in first minutes of video look nothing like mine. Guess I need to find the schematic’s fox a 2010 and figure it out from scratch?
The connectors will match between donor years and models for the vast majority of them. What changes is the wire colors. As long as your connector matches what’s in the video you should be good.
Try connecting it to your ECM. If it does not fit it is likely your ECBM (electronic brake control module) connector. If you still have your donor carcass around you can try to connect it to the ECBM.
Make sure you identify the ECM connector, you don't want to accidentally cut it out.
Alldatadiy.com, you can get all the wiring diagrams for your car, then have a way of verifying wiring, connectors etc. Made doing my harness much easier, plus then I compiled all the BCM, ECM, fuse block etc wire diagrams into one PDF and shared it here for other members to benefit from.
Example of the 06 SS/SC BCM, ECM and fuse block wiring diagrams you can get from AllData.
It’s definitely possible, but you may find that you forgot that one diagram/connector that you need. Best to buy a year subscription or the 5 year and call it part of the build cost
Also check with your local library, many of them have free access to the Chilton Library. You can also find libraries that have their Chilton info on their webpages. Let me know if you need help finding one.
