In your vehicle you will find the sensor is connected to a factory loom; due to lack of documentation and availability we can’t tell you what wires you need from this loom. You can trace the necessary wires on the factory loom back to the source and figure it out that way, or solder the gear lever position sensor to the provided transmission harness.

Your COMPUSHIFT harness may have been provided with a 5 way Delphi WeatherPack plug and mating receptacle.
