Wire identification
« on: July 16, 2015, 11:36:14 AM »
Hello, i could use some help yet again. I sent my harness off to tt to be reworked because the PO wasn't as neat as i would like to be, and i had a hard time tracking down wiring problems when i needed too. Its 87 sami to an 8v 89-90 kick. I know there is lots of different ways to combine the two rigs wiring but I'm going to post pictures as i come to the problems, so it shouldn't be too big of a concern. Trail tough did the rework for me like i said, (got rid of most of my excess wires i didn't need ect.) however when i pulled it i cut some wires i couldn't make sense of and, basically, the loose ends and leftover bits i have questions on isn't trail toughs fault in any way, and i agreed to take those parts back that way.


Okay bear with me, i just broke my computers hard drive and am doing this on my phone.
First picture, is there any use and what is the green connector for? I have nothing for it.

Second picture is passenger side headlight area. The spliced red/green stripe is for my side blinker, but what are the others for? Some have to be blinkers for the front, and maybe a winch?

Third. The white connectors coming though the firwall having nothing to go to. They are attached to a go chunk for harness that i cant see any use for on the interior. Can i delete this?

First thing I would do is download the Samurai Wiring Diagram at Ack's FAQ (see link in signature, below).

Do a search for diagram.  Use the color diagram created by "dice".

Try matching up the colored wires in the diagram to what you have in front of you.

Also, download the Samurai Factory Service Manual by doing a search for FSM.  This will contain pictures to help you identify the connectors.

The big white wire with the yellow stripe in the second picture is the Main Positive wire that connects the harness to the battery.



I hope that this helps!

That really does help, i was wondering where the positive wire went. I was already snooping around Acks and it has been helpful.
