I have a few plugs that I am unaware what they are. I believe some of them are for AC, evap and stock o2 plug. There is yellow wires coming out of the alternator plug. Not sure what they are for. I just pulled my engine and want to clean up my harness. Im planning on moving the battery to the trunk as well. Most of my stock unused plugs are just hanging like the stock FPS, Coolant overflow, o2, AC, Map, and BCS. I would also like to bypass any if I can.

What is the proper way to remove plugs. Do you pull all the wiring out? Cut the plug off? Pull the pin out of the plug and leave wires in the harness?

Does anyone have a list of plugs I can remove?

With the engine out, I would also like to move the fuse box to the glove box. No good reason other than to clean it up. I have ready a number of threads but would like some more insight.

I want to update this thread. I am doing a fuse box relocation for the second time. I would like to do things a little different. The first time I did it, I just looped the harness under the dash and extended the needed wires. I also have SD plug and play kit and the fuel resistor pack delete plug. This leaves the factory wiring in place. I also cut the plugs I didnt need off, heat shrunk each wire and left it in the harness.

Now since I am doing this a second time. I want to be more efficient and beneficial. Would it be worth doing wiring the SD and fuel stuff without the plug and play stuff? How much wire would that remove from this harness?

A few other things I am thinking of deleting is the power steering boot plug thing that sits on the pump. Mine has been broken for some time now anyway, Should I fix it or would it be worth deleting it? I know it helps the idle a little but want to hear other opinions. Reason being, in the future I might do a manual rack build.

I also want to delete the single temp sensor wire for the gauge cluster. I have a aem gauge anyway. I really never look at the water on the cluster. Are there any cons to removing this other than the water on the cluster not working? On a auto trans, is this wire still ONLY for the cluster?

I havent had a rear o2 sensor for years. My front is also a wideband. Can I remove the rear o2 sensor wiring without hindering ecu operation? The front I plan on removing the wires but leaving enough to wire my wideband up. Is this all ok?
