I'm done with everything in my swap except for wiring the shifter harness. Where the heck do I tie into the reverse light wires? I know they're light green and blue but I don't see where they're at. And what's the orange and black wire for on the shifter harness?

Is the P/N indication for the ECM so it adjusts the revs when you put it in and out of gear.
Org wire gets connected to the ECM ,terminal D16 on the '730 ECM

They get run to the corresponding wires on the shifter plug

I read somewhere that the blue wire I need comes off the turn signal flasher mounted to the fuse box. Can I tie into that wire?

Hey thanks I got it figured out. I'm all good now I think. That orange wire with black tracer needs to be hooked up to the ECM correct?
