No idea if it will help, but here’s a video on it. Maybe you’ll spot something of use.

Can you show us a pic of the front of this connector? What make/model/year did it come off of?

I REALLY NEED HELP!!!

I have been trying to figure this one out for some time now.. I have a 97 with a rectangle fuel pump wire harness connector. THe issue I am having is my husband threw away the old connector before installing the new one which has 4 WHITE wires!!!! If anyone could help me out as to which color wires plug into with alphabetical spots on the harness. I have white wires going into a, c, e, and f.........


He is working 7 days a week and I am tired of hoping he will find some time and energy to do this... I am not afraid to do the work myself, in fact probably should have in the first place.
i have similar situation but my wires are not all white same order old connector a,c,e,f but on new fuel pump diagram they send with it shows different n my wires r 2 blacks but one is solid n other is black/brown n grey and purple

4 wires, 2 for gas gauge,2 for fuel pump. Usually fuel pump are larger diameter. Find the Ground spot near gas tank, that should be or connect to fuel pump ground ( to help with which terminal on pump is ground).if small dia white wire,usually signal to gas gauge/ecm. Careful about black with white stripe.
Wiring diagrams are here-
