I done the swap and most the wiring is done. The truck will start and run fine. But will die without the battery plugged up and charged. But since my truck is an 03 the driver fender well didn't have a solenoid. The 97 explorer did have a fender solenoid. So I bolted it to my truck, ran the battery harness, the fuse box to the bottom terminal, and the thick black wire with a red stripe off the alternator to the bottom side of the solenoid. BUT what i having trouble with is there are 2 wires that come out of the alternator regulator I believe (yellow/white and green/red) they run across the engine and come out the plastic wrapping and have 2 more wires with them (black/yellow and black) into a 4pin plug. I have the other end of the plug I cut off the explorer where it started to run into the part of harness I didn't need. Where do I plug or slice them in? What about the square 6pin connector on the ranger harness side that sits under the brake master cylinder and booster area. I have no idea what that plug is for but I was thinking air conditioning high pressure switch and alternator but again I'm lost...someone please help I'm so close.
