Door vacuum pump electrical connector crumbled. Where does each wire go?
Tonight on the 81 300SD, I was testing the vacuum line from the from the vacuum pump in the spare tire compartment to check for leaks in the door lock/fuel door/trunk lock vacuum circuit, and in the process, I knocked the electrical connector out of the vacuum pump. I went to put it back in and it wouldn't seat. Every time I tried to re-seat it, the wax-like material at the end of the connector would crumble until nothing was left (you can see the wax-like crumbles on top of the spare tire), leaving me with 3 wires with female sockets at each end. Long term, I'll cut an intact connector off of a car at the parts yard and splice it in, but for now, I can just plug each socket individually, but I don't know where each one goes. Here's a photo. Anyone know where each wire goes?
