So I removed my wire harness to diagnose a problem. I fixed it and put my harness back in. Right next the the Fuse box theres 4 connectors that look alike. 2 of them go together as do the other 2. When i was taking everything apart i didnt look at the connectors as to which go together. 1 male connector will plug into the 2 female connectors but the other male will only plug into 1 female connector, but the wires that come out of the connectors dont match. Heres 4 pictures of each connector.

The Black/Yellow and White definitely goes to the Black/Yellow and white. I put those together today. I don't have anything to connect my Yellow/White connector to. I am assuming it is either a pressure switch or a transmission connector, such as the 5th position switch. That wire was missing from my diagram. I'll get back to you if I figure it out, but the matching pair definitely go together. Also, it's not uncommon for different color wires to lead from a connector compared to the wires that fed it.
