If you are installing an aftermarket solenoid, then you'll need cut the factory connector off the harness and hardwire (solder and heatshrink) your solenoid into place. Wire color and which wire goes where doesn't matter here. One side is +12v, the other is a switch to ground from the ECU. It doesn't matter which goes where on the replacement solenoid. | If you are installing an aftermarket solenoid, then you'll need cut the factory connector off the harness and hardwire (solder and heatshrink) your solenoid into place.

- | Because we have to test several different solenoids and have to maintain the ability to test other solenoids in the future, we have a small pigtail made up using a connector from (I believe) 2G fog light wiring. | + | Because we have to test several different solenoids and have to maintain the ability to test other solenoids in the future, we have a small pigtail made up using a connector found randomly on the 2G wiring harness. |
A picture of this connector is to the right. That plugs directly into factory boost control solenoid connector shown above. | A picture of this connector is to the right. That plugs directly into factory boost control solenoid connector shown above. |
