Well heres the scoop...the plug A has a BLK wire which im guessing is a ground....and it leads to plug B...but it is spliced with another ground so should i cap that or it doesnt matter?...then Plug B is an open plug that hangs there and it has a YEL/GRN wire that leads across beneath the car to Plug C...and with Plug C there is an ORG wire which connects to NOTHING!...and of course plug C connects to its opposite which is Plug C2 that leads to the Fuse Box...

Recap:1)WTH is Plug B (BLK and YEL/GRN wire)2)What do i do with the spliced BLK wire3)WTH is that ORG wire4)oh one more thing...what is that green thing..someone said its knock sensor?

A - is the reverse/neutral switch plug, looks like it's been pulled off the switch on the gearbox. Will need to resolder the wires or replace the switch.

Don't know about the rest.

The green plug that looks like a gardenhose should be connected, is the knock sensor. A white plug goes over the top of it, it has a single shielded wire about 3mm in diameter coming out of the plug.
