Can anyone tell me what the wires that are suppose to connect to the PS pump look like? My 88GL Wolfsburg had it removed by the previous owner and I would like to put it back on as it sometimes stalls when I have to parallel park and is pretty annoying. I found one wire just cut off and taped up with electrical tape that was taped to the plastic sheath for the harness but no other wire. Any help would be appreciated.
