Ok guys, the auto to manual tranny swap/install is complete and everything works fine. However, I do have a question. What/Where does this wire harness go to? It has four wires in it, but there is no connector on it. Anyone know? It comes out of the driver's side of the tranny. Thanks all.....Sorry for the big huge picture.

 

Ahh yes, that would be the "park position switch". Basically it sends a signal to tell the ECU if the car is in gear or neutral (hint hint remote start), or if it is in reverse (for rev. lights). You would splice into this to control the rev. lights. I dunno about the neutral/gear to the ECU though.

 

So, these 4 wires plug into that Park/Neutral harness coming out of the car now. Hmmmmm, do you know of any way to simulate this connector? These 4 wires plug into a connector, which connects to 2 wires......

 

No on the car fot the auto it is a 8 wire plug.. splicing the wires togehter is the best bet or buying a little kit that creates a new plug might even be better.

 

So is it possible to put a remote start on a manual if you leave it in neutral (w/parking brake up of course). I heard remote starts are only for automatics?

 

It is possible but can be dangerous if not in Neutral.

 

the reverse light sensor is on the other side of the trans.....the sensor he has a picture of isn't actually ON the trans, it's connected to the engine block...I don't see how that sensor could tell if the car is in gear or not becuase it's right by the flywheel.

When I put my trans back in my car...I forgot to reconnect that harness and my car woudn't start....

 

No, that harness that I took a picture of is coming out of the tranny. Kinda located underneath the driver's side CV Axle outlet on the tranny itself.

 

While we are on this topic, someone damnit post which of these wires you connect to have reverse lights wired!!!!!!!! WHich ones is it!!!!!

 

Bump.......
