So I need a bit of help installing an M46 into my originally automatic '85 240 (really a '75, but all the internals are '85). I've got everything installed, the car is up and running, but I can't figure out the OD wiring. From the relay mounted up in the dash, the wiring harness takes 2 wires over to the dash cluster (for the lights I presume), and 3 wires down to a 3-prong connector. I have the other end of the connector from the automatic with 3 prongs on it, and it looks like there are 2 grey wires (for the OD switch on the shifer) and a white wire - not sure where this goes. I also can't seem to find where I need to plug in the 2-prong connector that goes to the solenoid and to the 4th gear switch.

Was this little OD harness from the relay down different in the auto equipped cars? Do I need to grab this little harness section from an M46 equipped car?

Thanks in advance!
-Phil
