I need to know where the color wires go for a gen 1 CAS

I was reading the FSM to test the CAS and it says to check pin 1 and pin 2. Well my connector right now has pin 1 as ground (blk) pin 2 as hot (blk/wht). How the hell can i check for 5v-0V when the damn hot has 12ish volts already when the ignition is on. Right now i am trying to found out why my q45 wont start and figured maybe this section could also be of a little help.

Right now with the connector off the voltmeter reads 1 = 0, 2 = 11 volts, 3 = 5.16, 4 = 5.16. Connected 1 = .02, 2 = 11 volts, 3 = .20, 4 = .20. This was just still i didnt spin it because i was just saying stuff.

Right now it looks like this

CAS <-- pin 1 Black --> DRIVER SIDE pin 2 Black/White pin 3 Green/Yelllow pin 4 Green/Black

So if someone has a close up of the 4 pin harness with what wires are going where, that would be awesome. Since pictures sure do help out

Ok tired looking under his name. I did notice some things but not to much what i was looking for. So i will post up mine and if anyone with a 90-93 CAS, if you can look and tell me if this is correct. My local pick-n-pull only has 2 94's. Dont feel like driving to Hammond, IN just yet to see if their yard has any. But i will have to make my out there any way since my connector going into my CAS was shot. I went to pull it off and the GRN/BLK fell apart. After looking at the conntector a good 3 inches up on all wires were hard and blacken. So i need a new connector and pigtail. I managed to rob one off the 94 and break the case off and fit the terminals onto my 93 CAS just so i could test it out.

Here is how mine looks.

Ok i got a new clip, not the CAS as it was already taken from the boneyard. Anyhow the wiring is correct, as i thought it would really be.

Now i dont get how i can test 5v - 0v as the FSM says here in this picture, if i am testing the hot wire coming in from the ECCS relay. Any one care to explain this a little better.
