I'm replacing an auto transmission with another one and before I take it out I just want to ask something. There are 4 wire connections on top of the transmission, right under the starter. The colors are 2 blacks and 2 light color with black stripes. How do I know which one goes where when I put the working auto transmission back on? The car is a 78 280Z.

uh...mark them? 2 of them should be the neutral safty swith, and the other 2 should be the backup lights, I'm not real familiar with the auto's but I'd thinkt eh wire connectors would be differnet to keep you from plugging them backwards
