    Hey guys, just replaced the motor in my 09 4cyl tacoma. I'm just about done, in the process of reconnecting the wiring harness.

    There's a black, and a white spade connection between the motor and the fire wall that I'm confused about. As far as I can tell they're both grounds that connect to the cylinder head, but I'd like to be sure.

    Unfortunately I don't remember disconnecting them and didn't document them.

    Looking at my old motor, it looks like that's where they were, can anyone confirm this, please?

    You could test them with a voltage meter.
