oh you don't have the complete harness. Theres a whole harness that feeds that thing that just plugs into various factory connectors that are already in the car. They f'n suck to remove and install though. You can make your own with individual wires if you want, but I kinda like the factory plugin method. It looks, well, factory.

so out of the wires on the cruise amplifier which one should i first test for to find which one is the speed sensor wire.

check your EVTM. It should have a pinout and color codes for what wire does what. I have no manuals that old. On an 86, its dark green/white but that may not mean anything on your car.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

but it has to be one of those wires on the speed amplifier plugs right.

yes, but rather than guessing which one, you'd do yourself a favor and refer to the manual to find out which one. Pick the wrong one and you might smoke the tripminder.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

well i plugged the tripminder and i am getting a reading from the AVG MPH. Does that mean i got the speed sensor wire right.

if its a realistic speed, then yes. Drive somewhere, reset the avg mph, and check to see if average shows about what your speedometer shows while driving.
BTW, get the manual.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

Dark Green Wire is the VSS plus. There is also a black wire for the VSS negative. It's a ac voltage generator. This means that with more speed the voltage increases. You will need to tap into both of these wires for it to work properly. They should both be found on the speed amplifier control unit. On connector C609, so it's either the white connector or the black one. But they should both be on the same plug.
For ease of finding the wires you need, there's a connector to the left of the amplifier (closer to the emergency brake pedal) It's gray, square, with a black, and a green white wire on it. It actually has a place for a 3rd wire (Fuel flow). These are the VSS wires that you need.
To check if the wires you're tapped into now are the right ones, go at a certain speed, and then reset the average mph while still going at the same speed, if they match up, or are really close, you got the right wires, if not, you'll have to start over...Comment

dark green / white is the wire you need. It should be one of the wires in that little 2 wire plug just below the speed amplifier module.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

now to think of it there was this little grey plug with only two wires coming out of it hanging below the cruise amplifier. The colors of the wires were black and green one. not dark green but just green.

That's the connector. it's dark green as compared to the lighter greens that ford uses. It should have 3 sockets in the connector. Two being used by the existing wires Green/White (VSS +) Black (VSS -), and an empty socket that would be used by the fuel flow wire.Originally posted by MattsGrandMarquis View PostComment

dark green = green, light green = lime color.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).
