Misplaced Connector

[alanwp]

In the process of replacing my 4.3 GL PEFS power steering actuator I removed engine parts for access. After installation I found this loose cable and connector hanging behind the engine. The engine compartment is extremely tight and can't find where it goes. The wire colors are red blue & tan. Please help!

Pretty sure that is for the trim pump.

Re: Misplaced Connector

Sure looks like a trim connector. Bet the tan is actually a green faded to tan. What happened with this thread?

Thanks Guys - I'll trace the mating plug back from the relay

Re: Misplaced Connector

I've been back to the boat (between the thunderstorms) and verified I have power to the 10A relay fuse from the 50A breaker. The connector I show in this thread also has 12V power. The trim/tilt wiring diagram Don posted on 7/2/11 shows connector B to the trim switch and it sure looks like the one I posted. If this is correct, there has to be a mating male connector to the remote control. I'll be 78 tomorrow and perhaps it's showing! Thanks, Alan

Resoved. Traced line from remote to engine compartment. Found connector stuck and hidden between exhaust bellows and power steering actuator.
