Default 1990 ABS sensor

Hey guys was hoping someone here might be able to help with this?

I need help identifying the connector used on a 90 air bag sensor I am trying to confirm that the part I have here is correct for a 90' I have a picture for what I think is a 91-96 but the one I have here looks to have a different connector, the connector on mine is a barrel type with 2 male and 1 female prong. All the pics I find online are of a rectangular connector??? Any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated and will include one of these and a thank you that about sums it up. This is the pic I find online but it does not look like mine.



^ IS THIS FOR A 90??? ^



The first pic is of the ones I have the second pic is of what I find online

The first is of a '90MY like you mention. The second is of a '91MY or later.

What do you need?

excellent! thanks that's all I needed to know, every time I look up the part number on mine (10177901) it shows it with the rectangular connector shown in the second pic and claims 91-96 but mine is definitely the one in the first pic. I guess because it is a one year only and the connector is hidden when installed everyone online just uses the 91-96 picture, when I look the part number up some gm part sites also say 94-96 so a little confused.
Cheers!

A couple observations. I paid attention yesterday to only the connector, nothing else and the connector is certainly 1990 BUT if your sensor has 10177901 on the sensor it's not a 1990 sensor. A 1990 original sensor is 10094613 and that is on the sensor. Another observation after looking at a 1990 sensor is that the sheathing on the 1990 is black and not yellow. I'm assuming what you've got in your snapshot is maybe a cut/splice to facilitate a repair.

Is your DERM an orange box?

What situation do you have with the SIR system?

I do not have an issue, I just found this in my garage and had no idea what car/job it is from. I did notice the part # and the connector difference that is what had me confused??? the part is brand new NOS from the looks of it no splice or anything must be a screw up at AC Delco I suppose.

Here is the ohm test for a 90 air bag sensor:



If they test ok would you be willing to sell one if you do not need it? I am in need of one to get my air bag system operational.

Thanks
