Power trunk latch wiring

Post by Praesepe559 » Mon Jun 27, 2005 7:00 pm

I just picked up the power trunk latch assembly to replace my non-powered one, at first it looked pretty straight forward but now I have a couple questions on the wiring:

From the release selenoid:
-Green/Blk
-Black
I am assuming the black is just a body ground, and the Green/black should be hooked up to 12v via push-button switch, is this correct?

There is also a Tan/Blk wire that plugs into a prong near the latch itself, according to the FSM that could be a trigger for a trunk light, but what exactly would be needed to make this work?

Not attached to the latch assembly, but in the same wire loom there is a connector with Purple/Blk and Black wires, anyone know what this is?

Thanks,
Justin
