Refer to..

Ive removed the engine and now I need to get those harnesses out. The engine harness is out, but the Accessories and yada yada are still there making my life miserable. Anyone have a solid method for removal?

harness is rather easy if you take off the fenders and work from the outside in

i had to put a new front harness in mine i think it took me about an hour after i removed the body panels

Your shitting me? I got the fenders off, but is there a break in the harness or do I have to disconnect from the fuse box?

Damn wiring... where's Radhaz when I need him for elctronic trouble-shooting. My headlights are still limp...

Underhood harness plugs into the back of the fusebox and goes to the steering column, then out under the hood through the core support to the other side of the firewall. Pretty self explanatory.

Are we talking a harness connector like the eng harness or is it a mass of independant connectors? Id wrather not ask, but Im its freezing here and dark so I cant get down the street to take a peek....

in the pic in the lower left corner (battery tray) there are 2 connectors, that is the main harness.
goes by the right strut tower (left side of pic) Under the fuel filter, (one ground on the back of the strut tower) than it splits into the engine harness (which you already disconnected as the motor is gone) and it continues inside.
just have to unbolt the right kick panel, and unbolt the ECU. and there is another connector just to the right of the glove box. Disconnect and pull out from the engine bay.

I think that pretty much covers the main harness. As I just pulled mine out about a day ago
