Connect ARC 2 to Green Wire?
In the process or installing the ARC 2 the instructions say to:
"Connect ARC 2 Grey wire to Green wire on DME harness terminal #22"
Ok.. but there's four green wires? Which one, the smallest guage green wire?
Thanks

I've got some photos of a disassembled connector on my website: <a href="http://members.rennlist.com/951_racerx" target="_blank">951 RacerX</a> under the "replace clock w/ ARM1" section.
Simple procedure. Just roll back the rubber boot, and take off the little screw. Pull off the upper cover and you'll all the numbered leads. Be careful about the little plates on the side that holds all the pins in. If those drop out, you can accidentally yank out several wires at a time and then you'll have a mess of figuring out where to replace them.
Actually, I think the connector is numbered on both sides. But you still have to take off the back cover to see which wires go to which position.

hey the wire he needs is the green wire solid not any with a stripe. the gray wire for ecu temp input connects to the green wire on dme terminal #22 just like he posted at the top, yes i also ran into this issue ( which damm green wire?) all 3 are fat big solid green and only 1 is thin and solid green, i used the thin solid green one and assume its going to terminal #22 as derrick told me he thiught it was this thin green wire but he told me to check to make sure, if it was a fat green wire i would of heard about it by now, but i think for sure its the green solid thin wire you need, but check and make sure it goes to #22, my arc2 and car runs fine if im wrong anyway but im pretty sure this wire i got connected right, let us know what green wire you find out ok, later

Tecart:
I did as Danno suggested and removed the cover from the DME. I located terminal #22 and followed the wire up and connected it to the grey wire from the ARC 2. I don't remeber the gauge size of the wire. But if your unsure, I would remove the cover and see if you have indeed connected it to the correct wire. I'll take another look at the wire if you would like?
Thanks

hey is that the only thin green wire in there? i see it is a thin green wire like i thought it should hook too but on my 1986 car there is only 1 thin green wire is the 1989 turbo dme harness the same if so then the final answer is the thin green wire, also to the above poster yes would you please check for me and the list and post it here? thanks a ton

The wire block has numbers on the sides of the terminals. Look for #22.. that simple. All years should be the same, and I think it is the only single thin green wire. You can do a continutiy test with the AFM connector pin 4... and pin 22 on the DME.

Go with the #22 position on the connector. There's no ifs ands or buts about it. By saying "small green wire", that could mean a lot of things to different people. For some, anything smaller than #00-gauge is "small". And some people are color-blind too! That picture above says it all.
