Stock harness depinning help

[vex]

So I'm working on eliminating the extraneous crap from the stock engine harness in preparation for my stand alone install. I'm working on isolating one specific plug right now; the plug that mates the body harness to the windshield wiper motor.

There are a few things I can't seem to figure out. First and foremost what is the 'Actuator' that is discussed on 50-117 of the FSM. It contains in clockwise function from the upper left; looking through the back of the plug: G/Y, G, G/B, G/W

Actuator is not very descriptive as you can tell. So anyone know?

The other issue I have is I have a plug that's not listed in the FSM. It's on the same plug as the one mentioned above. But the wires are not listed in 50-117. It's a two wire plug with B/W on top and W/B. I think it connects to the alternator, but I'm not 100%.

So, again... anyone know?

Seriously? No one knows what the 'Actuator' is referring to in the FSM?

Figured it out. 'Actuator' Can refer to multiple things within the FSM. First and foremost it can refer to the Stepper Motors for the AAS. Secondly it can also refer to (and this is what it was for me) the cruise control actuator. So out it comes!. Woot!


Now I just need to figure out what that last plug is for and I have a successfully depinned harness ready to be installed back into the car.

Glad we could help. :rofl:

And the other cable is as I thought; it plugs in to the alternator.

Looks like it will be time to figure out how to re-wire an S4 alternator to work without the standard plug location. :lol:
