Default Throttle position switch

Just purchased a new electrical connector/pigtail for my 1985 928s 32v throttle switch and need a little help. The original wire colors from the loom are white with orange stripe, solid brown & solid white. The wires on the new connector are blue,black & orange. Anybody know which connects to which ?. Thanks.

I just re-wired virtually every plug under my hood.

I took photos, and for the TPS, I have one for the male end that meets the female right under the strut brace..

The wires are color coded in order from top to bottom, with the plug in the orientation show in the picture.

The Female that it attaches too had some really faded wire. I had to make mine, so I am not sure if this photo is much help here.







TPS Male



Methinks you may just need to strip away the boot like I did, with an exacto knife, a pick, and pliers, and then trace each color to the contact on the new plug.

That is how I rewired the entire engine bay. (The MAF is the toughest to rebuild, and the colors on the Fuel Injector connectors have no rhyme or reason..)
