Title: Trying to pull motor - I'm Stuck!!! HELP!!!
Post by: DipStick on July 13, 2007, 06:13:54 AM

So I am a little clueless how the wiring harness comes out with the motor...I am assuming that it should.  I know disconnecting it from the ECU is easy, but what about where the harness runs into the fuse box?!?  I seriously doubt that I have to disconnect every sensor on the motor and leave the harness in the car - do I?  I am on a real time crunch so any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!
