1997 Chevy Camaro mileage: 40,000. I’m trying to find the proper wire color code for my oil pressure gauge connector. Its located just above the oil filter and its a three pin connector with three wires, however in my Haynes manual there is only one wire shown (orange). The Chevy dealer hasn’t been helpful and GM suggested I try you.

The orange wire is for the oil pressure. The other two wires are for the fuel pump cutoff switch. The function of the switch is to stop the electric fuel pump if you lose oil pressure while driving (saves the engine).
