Oy. I cut the blue and gray wires, hoping the conversion mechanic
connected the back-up switch wires down at the transmission. I was
surprised to see 0V at the gray wire. So I slept on it, and in the
morning tested the *other* side of the gray wire (Doh!). The 12V on
the gray wire is coming *out* of the MFS. (See additions here:)

I'm afraid if I just cut all 8-10 wires, the car won't start. So before
I cut the wires, I'd like to know which wires control the starter relay.
Any one have a clue?
Thanks.
