Hey all,
I have an 08 Mazda 3 and I got hit very lightly on my passenger side, unfortunately you all know there is an electric power steering pump on that side. The wires where ripped out due to the impact and I have put all back together myself except the three that go in the outward most plug in. I was wondering if any one had any idea which colors went where, had a link to a schematics page or even had a picture of the setup. I went to the dealer to buy a book get a microfiche or anything and they had no of which available. Any help would be GREATLY Appreciated!

 

ill b able to help you, i myself have a copy of the service manual but im not at my computer, when i get home ill look it up

 

that would be great if you could share that with me, Life without my mazda3 just hasn't been life at all.

 

You should buy a Factory service manual. I just did for 13.86 on ebay. best thing in the world if you are a DIY person.

 

no luck on my end, need to look under body control system

 

are both male and female plugs color coded? you know, blue to blue socket etc

 

Thanks anyway Tracker, It was atleast worth a try. The wires on the plug that are still unplugged are indeed color coded there is a bl/red gray/red and a solid light blue wire. I figure if I knew where atleast one went it would drop my odds of getting it right down dramatically. Now I took your advice about looking on ebay but I seen a few different books, is there any of them that you could recomend that have the schematics on there?

 

oh and i mis-read your Question Copierman, no both sides are not color coded or even marked with initials, male side is bleek and female side is too. Only indication would be wire colors and left to right order.

 

Okay folks, thanks for the help!!! Although I did order the piece of the harness i need from ebay and it just came in the mail today. Being this the case I thought I would share my revelation with the good people of the site for future reference.Wiring order from left plug to right plug left being passenger side right being driver.
POWER STEERING PUMP wiring order.
1st plug: bl/red, gray/red, bl/turquois.
2nd plug: black, red
3rd plug: white/bl, brwn/bl, and behind is gray/prpl.
Thanks again everybody!!!!

 

cool, glad things worked out
