So, I recently bought a 1997 Mazda B4000 4x4 with the 1354 electric shift t-case. The 4x4 was not working when I bought the truck (it has the infamous blinking dash indicator lights) and now I am trying to get it going.
I first noticed that the blue/green wires coming from the magnetic sensor on the t-case were cut and figured they could be reconnected easily. However, the 8 pin plug coming from the electric shift motor does not have any place for these wires to be reconnected. I have looked at pictures on the internet and at other trucks at local junkyards and have not found any other Ranger/B-series with this kind of wiring. It seems they either have the 8 plug with no magnetic sensor or a 10 plug with a magnetic sensor.
What am I missing? Where should the blue/green wires go?
