The Green and Green/Black wires break out of the main harness under the dash
in the right/center near the firewall. They are short stubs and there is a
short harness that plugs into them and extend down through a grommet in the
transmission cover to the transmission. It is easy enough to not notice the
black
tracer on the wire and plug it directly into the green wire at the breakout.
I'd check that first.
