GTFC's "What are these plugs" thread..., Updated to Pics #2 Options

[gtfc115]

people are gonna hate me after all this...

i got my car out of the shop cuz they dont know what's going on. there's a lot of problems with the wiring and i want to get it narrowed down. let me explain the symptoms: first of all, the shop left the main white fuse plug unplugged, so needless to say, they couldnt get power to anything. within an hour of looking around, i figured that out and plugged it in. WHAMMO i got headlights (hi/low) the door chime, locks, lights on the doors, and the guage cluster lights up...thats about it. no sunroof, no power windows, cd player doesnt turn on, no blinkers, no windshield wipers, no fan for the vents. all minor stuff for now, i just want the car to start.

now, when i turn the key to start up, i can hear the circuit opening relay click, but nothing else happens. i had a couple friends over to help out and we ran 12v straight to the starter and the fuel pump relay and got the motor cranking, but there was no spark so it wouldnt start.

so with no power getting to a number of things, i want to go through all the leftover plugs that are layin around to see if they should be plugged into something.

here's the first one. it's probably the EGT sensor. 1 black wire, 1 white wire. it comes out as shown in the 2nd pic.





theres a lot more...i just want to go 1 at a time

thanks a LOT in advance...ive come to find i dont know nearly enough to be doing this swap. shame on me.

for all those little fuses, buy a little fuse test light. sometimes those little fuese can seem ok when they are not. check all 3 fuse box locations in the car....there is one on drivers side, one on the passengers side (unde the glove box) and the main one in the engine bay

look where you ecu is. there should be 3 plugs hooked into the ecu and then 3 plugs that connect right above the ecu (sort of to the left ) make sure all that in hooked in .

make sure your main engine fuse box plug is pluged in correctly ... you sort of have to push down, and this little lever will pop up to help lock it in place. make sure its fully locked and making a solid connection

jack up the car an look under where the back of the block and intake manifold is. there are some plugs for the knock sensor as well as an engine ground wire.

so far it sounds like something simple that you might have missed.
