Very pissed abt this all so I've been going off the check list of issues and thought back to these wires I dunno if its possible they are tge reason y my signals dont work when headlights on. Even if not id just like everything to be hooked up properly. Also ground in engine looks loke above tranny. So uuuhhhhh yea anybody know where I need to be ??
ECM are label for pin... what color and numbers? black 1, white 16, etc.
I'm guessing goes to ALDL because has orn wire to B1 I think If so... blk/wht is ground and wht/blk is data out.
If missing ALDL... ALDL has "live" power on two pins when fuel pump is on and TCC is lock. Means have other wires to fix...
------------------ Dr. Ian Malcolm: Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should. (Jurassic Park)
That's far from the most hacked up 4 cylinder Fiero I've ever seen.
BTW, you never mentioned the year, engine, or transmission.
The Factory Service manuals are out there in PDF, available for free download. FSM will tell you what those wires are, where they go, where they splice, where the grounds are and what connectors they pass through.
Sorry I apologize its an 88 2.5/5speed. And not sure on pin numbers, bc im picking up my daughter now and not there. Glad to hear its not the worst hacked fiero thats been see . Thats a lil comforting. Lol. makes since since they cutt exhaust and ran straifht pipe. I guess id have tovweld in o2 sensor so it doesnt run rich? ?? Or is it ok?
Yeah, it looks like they snipped the wires for the ALDL connector. Also, the fuel pump power wire branches off to the ALDL connector (tan with white stripe). And the TCC solenoid wire too (tan with black stripe). The fuel pump wire is a power wire, and will short out if it touches the chassis while the engine is running. The TCC solenoid wire is a ground, and will lock the torque converter if it touches the chassis.
Hope that helps.
Edit to add: I may still have an ALDL connector from a 4-cyl with an automatic transmission. If you want, I'll dig around in my big box of wires and see if it's still there.

Yes I'def like that connector if you have it. I can send you $$ for it. Also will need to see a pic of some1s setup so I can figure best way to run wires. So basically the tan-blk wire in the tranny pic is for the torque converter not o2 and needs to be conneced with white/blk stripe --black/white stripe and spliced with fuel pump tan and brown wire via the aldl connector that im missing...?

No, the tan / black wire on the transmission is different. That one is the ground for the O2 sensor. There should be another tan / black wire somewhere by the ECM that's snipped. THAT one is for the torque converter.

Ok, im sure there is bc ive noticed a tan wire; but it was up under the dash area.. ill get to those later only like 3 or 4 there. So basically from me googling the aldl connector and the input im recieving here, it seems like aldl is pretty much a dead end for the lines and a testing point.. I still want the connector just to have it wired properly and for diagnosic purposes. So for my test rides untill I get my aldl I should secure those wires to avoid any bullshht
I seen DIS Brick etc above so I knew 87+ L4 engine but I switch two wires... correct data here.

ALDL G is tan/wht wire to fuel pump.
Check O2 sensor... maybe PO switch to 2 wire O2.
