Welcome to the forum. Lots of posts on this subject. Forum etiquette is to do a search on the forum before asking procedure questions. You'll not only find what you're asking but advice on choosing OEM vs non, also if programming is required. Other than oil and similar, the LS is very computer centric and often requires TechStream software of other capable software. Good luck with your project and ask again if the search doesn't give you answers.

Might help to put your subject problem in the Title. Many will treat strange cryptic messages for “help” as bot spam.

These connectors are known to break. There are black ones on one side of the engine and the grey ones on the other side. They are sold separately and I believe it is preferable to buy grey connectors for either side because they made out of better plastic. I think all the information you need you can find in this thread

I see. If everything else fails try TIS. TIS portal ( https://techinfo.toyota.com/ ) might have the information you're looking for. I used that portal for the electrical schematics and some other stuff in the past. I think they have engine repair manuals as well. You can buy 2 days subscription for $25 and download whatever you need.
