Need help identifying a/c compressor wire order
Hi Everyone,
First off thank you to past and present members as I’ve used many threads here lately to help me work on my car.
I picked up a 2006 base last winter and just replaced the a/c compressor due to the connector being melted off. The wiring connector that plugs into the compressor was also gone and I am just left with a green and black wire.
Does anyone know which pin is the green wire? The top or bottom pin into the compressor?
Or is anyone able to pop off their connector and take a pic for me so I can see the orientation of the wires to the connector?
I can’t figure out how else to know which order to splice them in. Couldn’t find a single google pic or video to be able to tell. The new connectors have the same color wires and I’ve found a couple pics of a new one with the green wire on top and bottom.
Thanks!!

The positive (green wire) is on top.
