Where is the pic?

Just a guess but are the three wires purple, yellow and pink going to a connector on a bracket? If so that is for the front 02 sensor. Not good news.

OK now we are getting someplace. I thought you meant in the back of the engine. If the wiring connector is between the coil pack and alternator that goes to the MAP sensor. If it is the bigger connector close to the right side of the UIM Plenum then that is the joining connector for the coil packs and ignition control module. If it is the connector on the plastic cylinder looking part by the right side of the UIM that is the purge solenoid.

Can any of those cause the engine to mifire< obviously it comes from the PCm and i have the replaced the whole wire and pin ( the connector < its right behind a plastic piece and has a little tube running into the side of the throttle body

If it is the connector for the Coil Packs/ICM sure. The plastic piece with the vacuum line going back to the throttle body is the purge solenoid. But the purge solenoid does not normally cause a misfire. Just throw a code of maybe P0441.

But it sounds like the connector for Coil Packs/ICM so you may be onto something significant. Good luck!.

So is there anyway i cant replace that connetor with a new on without taking it to a dealership< i know that go to the pcm well at least the one that is burnt< and those pin i need they sell online< and all the dealership around here dont have them in stock> ( the pins the hook in the the PCM connector But all i really need is that connector< but do they just sell that connector< do you know the part number>

[richtazz]

I'll check that part number for you when I get to work.

[Liljay2003]

Alright i just need the connector peice i know the part number or the pin the goes into the PCM connector< but thanks

If you're referring to the 8 way connector behind the purge valve, the half to the right in the picture is part # PT444 (GM#12117271), and runs $35.59 (dealer retail $71.17). The half to the left, is part# PT443 (GM#12117270) and runs $35.56 (dealer retail $71.11).
