CL600 help

Hey all, new guy here.

So I recently got a 2001 CL600 and wanted to upgrade the old radio in the car. Got the radio and bezel out with no real problems except for one tiny issue.

On the back of the traction controls/hazard switch module there is a little 3pin plug, and it seems to have been broken at some point, pins seem to e fragile.

I can reconnect them to the plug, but I have no idea what order they are supposed to to be in.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I looked, but have couldn't find anything. I might have mine back apart here shortly, if I do, I'll take a picture of that bit for you.

Other steering racks

What aftermarket or remanufactured complete steering rack and pinon is decent to go with, my Indy only uses oem steering racks from the dealer.
I have only gone with oem with every repair but after putting over $6,000 in repair in 9 months is getting me frustrated. Now my whole steering rack is out but I am not paying $1600 just for the rack. I can get other steering racks for much less and they have life time warranties. I just want to know which one would be good.
I see mavel, A1-cardone, AC delco, AAE, etc... Which is decent and can do the job, I am not going to keep it much longer...lol, after I have gotten everything sorted out someone will get a nice ride.
Helpful info is appreciated.

please start your own thread for your problem and dont thread jack. I have had my car apart for days now trying to find the info on 3 wires over the radio. I've searched all corners of the internet and every book in the local library and every mechanic that I know. The last thing I need is someone bringing in a totally different issue and preventing me from getting my car back together and on the road.

Sorry if I'm sounding rude, but I'm getting a little stressed here trying to get this info and this is the last thing I need.

So after more fiddling I've determined these wires are part of the SRS wiring, but still not able to determine the order in which they need to be placed into the plug.

Ah, good. Sounds like that was quite a pain. Sorry we didn't have any help for you.

No worries, just one of those odd ball bits of info that is really hard to find. A buddy at a shop found the info for me in some random database
