Problem installing skip shift by-pass harness
HELP!
Today I’m am attempting to install a MID AMERICA MOTORWORKS CAGS (skip shift) by-pass harness. I have been unable to insert the CAGS harness into the car wiring harness (it will only go in about 1/3 to 1/2 of the way) the male female sockets connectors cannot be pushed home. I have tried channel locks but that only causes the two connectors bind in a sideways motion.
Any suggestions?

Check out forum member Bugmans site and got to "Cags By Pass". I'm not sure why it won't connect.

I think you have the wrong connector. If you look above the connector you are trying to use on the transmission there is another connector. The wire should be labled "Skip shift," or something similar to that.

That would be my bet as well. You wouldn't be the first. There is another connector close by.Paul
