maybe because the '88 was speed density

not sure what you can do though ?

are the wires the same color ? just the connector is different ?

you might need to get a wiring diagram from the tranny for each year to see whats what, and hard wire it.

to be honest with you i didn't even notice if the wires were the same color, i guess if it comes down to it that would be the last ditch effort to get the wires hooked up
