    M50 sensors

    Hello,

    My swap is almost at the end but I need to figure out what sensors go where. I can get the colors of the wires but is there any way to look this up in the ETM? The only way I would know how is page by page looking at every wire, but there has to be an easier way. I find the ETM a bit confusing and I'm not really sure how to navigate through it to find the information I want.

    Help greatly appreciated,
    Aaron

    Find the pin out of the dme and run a continuity test on the connectors. Way faster imo

      I assume the DME pinout is in the ETM somewhere?

        I followed the colors of the wires and matched them to the ETM.
