I was running the wries and making a harness for my volvo fan today and came across a wire I don't recall.

Behind the pass side headlight is a single orangish wire witha single connector on it, with a fusiblelink inline.

It heads through the core support but I didn't chase it too far.
Ran out of time.

Heres a quick phone pic.

I replaced all my pos wire from teh battery to the alt to the starter and I dont recall unplugging it from the original harness.

Anyone know what it is and if it NEEDs to be reconnected?

Jason , on my truck that wire connects to a black plug and feeds into the positive batt terminal .

My pos wire has a connector that is unused but it is a 2 prong weatherpack.

This is only a 1.
I think it might be the foglight power, but I am not over there to try them.

So much for my new POS cable being a SyTy specific.
It was in a box with the right part # but that still doesn't mean GM got it right.

Truck is running with the Volvo fan switching off of the unused IC pump wiring.
You can turn them on and off in the tables for IC pump control.
Awesome mod for anyone that is A/A!

I want to drive it tomorrow so I am chilling out and going back after dark.

I am not 100% sure, but I believe that connector is for the ABS circuit. You did the ABS delete, right?

Correct, 4 wheel antilock brake pump motor:

Since you are ABSless, don't sweat it...

the diagrams are in the service manuals.

You can also buy them on CD-Rom in PDF format with full clickable indexes from opie at www.sportmachines.com

I have over 400 hours into linking and building all of the tables that you guys don't even see.
yeah I got a free upgrade from V2 to V3 for my efforts.

It is a picture from my Helm's wiring diagram. You can get the skinny on the manuals in my post here.
