Thought it would be straight forward disconnecting all the wiring including the computer. Well, that turned out that everything is all cool except there is another component on the fire wall of the contour that is not on the Mystique. So there is no connector on the engine from the Mystique computer harness. Can anyone tell me what this is? The part is located on teh driver's side of the black panel on the fire wall. Thanks in advance for the help. Greg "I Believe In Ford" 02 Expedition EB 95 Contour GL 91 Mustang GT 87 Mustang GT 66 Mustang Coupe w/5.0/T5

They will provide you with a "direct link" copy that link and click "Image" at the bottom of the message box when posting and it will prompt you for the link. Paste the link and you will see it show up as I have it below (it will be lower cased lettering of course so it will work) and the image will show up.

If the recipient car is the '95 GL in your .sig, I hope you realize that you're pulling the engine from a OBDII car and trying to stuff it into an OBDI. -06 GTO Torrid Red/M6 -98 LS with BPU -05 Honda Odyssey EX-L mv .zig ..\for\great\.justice

Everything hooked up like it was made for it. Shouldn't have any connection issues now... RIGHT?
