I just finish my 5 speed swap on my convertable and I can't figure out my top. It starts and drive and the reverse lights work. My inhibitor switch wires are not double colors like brown/yellow. All the wires on my inhibitor switch is solid colors. I tried splicing the brown, yellow, blue wires into my reverse green wires but nothing works. The only wire I didn't try to splice to it is the red wire coming from my inhibitor switch. I don't want to try it yet because I don't know what it is. Can someone help me with my top please.

Did you read through the 5spd swap for verts? It's linked in the Convertibles FAQ, Stickies thread on this subforum.

He did. I tried to help him there, but somehow colors of wires are different on his car. We need Bart.

Oh boy. Is it time for the dreaded multimeter wire tracing & FSM wiring diagram referencing to begin?

I sure did Onosqv. Also used the Project Car Magazine for the swap. Is it normal for the wire's color to be different on the vert? Is there a fsm wiring diagram on this site (maybe one for solide wires inhibitor plug?

Your best bet would be somewhere in the convertible supplement:

There's a link to the pdf there.

Thanks Onosqv. That is a great link man. I'm just an idiot when it comes to wiring. Am I suppose to be looking at the wires that is going to the hydrolick pump and motor asm? From the look of it it's showing a yellow and blue wires.
