Expert Reply:
I have included images below of the 6-Pin # PK11609 and the 7-Blade # C58155 connectors that you will be wiring. I do recommend using the positions rather than trying to go off the wiring colors as the colors can vary. You can use a Test Light # PTW2993 to verify the wires are in the correct places on your current 6-pin connector.
