Okay. It doesn't matter so much the wire color because that is going to be different because it changes even throughout the same model year. If the connector fits then the cavities are all that matter.

Cavity 1 is the black wire or ground.
Cavity 2 is Orange or cam sensor signal return to the PCM.
Cavity 3 is a blue wire or power feed from the the fuse.

I attached the wiring diagram.

Let me know if you have questions but if the old connector is still attached, the easiest way to do this is cut one wire at a time and solder it onto the new connector wiring. Thanks
