Just finished my 5-speed swap yesterday. Started first time thanks to this. It's could not be any more simple.

Got it figured out and it started fine. Thank you for the help of having the writeup. I should of removed the automatic harness entirely but I left it there. Should be out of the body shop soon and I can finally break in the new clutch.

Hopefully the following will be helpful (sorry if I'm repeating info you already know, just trying to be clear in my explanation).
The black wire that connects at C200 is part of the auto wiring harness, as is one of the black/yellow wires. When you remove the harness you're left with a black/yellow wire that takes the place of the black wire in the large block of connectors on top of the steering column.
So in re-reading your post, I think I understand your question a little better...the black/yellow wire that goes to the auto harness relay is the one you DON'T want to use...the other one should be the one that goes to the ignition switch, which is the one that you DO want to use :)
This might be of some help in sorting out what's what too.
It seems much of the confusion can be avoided by removing the auto harness and relay completely. Feel free to contact me and I'll do my best to help you sort it out.
Cheers!

Edit: Went back and reread other posts and threads. I am looking for the c200 connector and unplug the black wire in the back and plug in the black yellow wire. But someone messed with the wiring before can I just cut and solder the black wire connector from the black c200 plug and solder that with the black and yellow wire?? And not sure which end of the blk/yl wire to to connect since someone used that crimp connector. All other wiring connections were straight forward and easy!

Thank you,,
I Have thursday off so I'll work on it when I get time. Thanks again.

I checked the voltage from plug 2 it was 11.98 V DC.
and I checked the voltage to the end of the reverse wire it was there a voltage.
I'll check if there is OHMs reading at the switch.

what switch you are talking about ?

If it doesn't work, check the harness underneath the car. Mine was shredded from the driveshaft on the first drive home, so I had to create a new harness.
If not, there is always a possibility your switch is busted. I did a 5-speed swap for a friend and that was his issue

sorry for the delay but finally got some pics
here is the plug for the auto trans and the reverse light wire from the trans
1: is the wire coming from the manual trans.
2: is the plug that I am confuse with.
3: is the plug that I might I need to plug number one to it.
I believe same thing.
but the question is do I need to get the green/yellow and green/black connected together and then connect to green/white from the trans? and the blue/white from trans to console plug blue/white ?
I am just hella confused. I need pictures that can describe the situation here please.
I tried the plug and play and put the gear to reverse no reverse light works.
please help.

I will go as far as to say that the wiring on the trans doesn't matter how it is hooked up
You should check the wire harness. They are fragile and tend to rip when handled in the manner while doing a swap.
Always be sure to check your hookups
