The thinner wires are the ones to tap into if you're installing a shift light mate. The thick white wire is the 12v feed. The thin wires are only earthed when they get activated by the ecu.

I dont think it works like that - they are all signal cables. None go direct to earth.

I tried to tap in to each (individually) to get a signal for my SL, none worked!

I can guarantee 100% that the 2 thinner wires are earthed via the ecu mate. You need to set the shift light up as a 2cyl to get them to work though.

That may well be why mine failed. It only had 4,6,8 cyl settings
