Help identifying orange wire - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

focusedontheprize · 03-23-2019, 11:14 AM

In the progress of rewiring my electrical engine harness and noticed some had the AUX fuel connector wire (pink) running to this orange wire instead. It appears there is a connector by the fuel pedal.

Can anyone help identify what this is and how it should be properly wired? It is for a 1988 Chevrolet V30 DRW. Thanks.

th400 trans kick down switch power circuit . you need this if you still have the th400 trans in the vehicle .

red from fuse box prob to switch and then orange out to trans connector .

and who even PINCHED them wires between sharp body panel and rubber grommet should be shot . great way to start a fire . i know your cleaning this stuff up now so its not aimed at you .
