    Connector to door lock housing - which wire goes to which door?

    For some reason, the previous owner of 2072 decided to cut the wires that drive the solenoids from the door lock connector, and install spade connectors on both sides. They also removed all the pins/sockets from the car's side of the connector.

    I have NO idea why they would do that, but now I'm trying to make sense of the mess. I know there are Red/White and Red/Grey wires, and I know which set goes to which door, but I don't know where, in the lock controller's housing, they should be.

    In this photo, can someone tell me which wire from the driver side and passenger side door goes in which slot on the connection?

    Hi, does this schematic help?:

    Specifically the photo in post 5...

    Also, based on my testing, the red/gray(slate) wires are the lock circuit in the solenoids if that helps:

    Ah, that link is perfect. Thanks!

    I'm going to replace the door lock module, and install new pins in the housing once it all gets here.
