Default VSS wire on 2006

I am hooking up a Pioneer nav D1 unit in my 2006 C6. When I went to hook it up at the computer behind the front passenger wheel well, I noticed the 2006 has 2 wiring harnesses, rather than the 3, I understand the 2005 has. In the 2005, the VSS wire was located in the very bottom harness of the three, now with the 2006 just having two harnesses and several green/white stripe wires, I need some help.

Can anyone look in a service manual for a 2006 and see where this is located. I have been told it is still a dark green wire with the white tracer. CKT 817 which is pin 57 at the C1 connector. Could someone verify this and let me know which of the 2 harnesses is C1 and where the exact pin location is.

thanks so much

On my C6 the plugs into the BCM are both black. The fact that there are 2 not 3, and both black has got me asking these questions.

sorry,should of noticed the location. BCMs now have 4 connectors, what I was talking obout is the ECM(your curcuit and location is for the ECM)

I am digging to see what you have your eyes on. Have you got the P/N from that box(my guess is the audio amp now)

OK, what you are looking at is the audio amp,thats where the BCM used to be(it should say audio on it near the p/n's)to the right of that is the BCM which supports fuses(it might look like a fuse block)I see no VSS in or out of it. I assume low or high speed LAN is used to carry VSS to BCM if it needs it!!!!ECM is under battery behind right frt tire like before

Ok, my mistake I am referring to the module in the passenger wheel well that has the 2 connections for the 2006 rather than the 3 for the 2005. Which of these 2 is the VSS wire attached??

Thanks so much

Your target wire used to be on a blue connector body, now its a black connector body(the other is gray)Your location ,color and curcuit number is correct( dk gn/wt pin 57) You will need to examine the connector body to see numbers on the end of rows to locate. Black connector is a 73 pin, and gray connector is 80 pin,not all pins are used so don't count wires.
Give me a fax number and I'll send pic (6.0 or 7.0L??)
