Default Need help Identifying harness plug

Im almost done converting my harness into a 4 wire standalone, but I hot a road block! I have one plug that I can't identify and my TPS wires lrad to it! The harness is out of a 2002 Cadillac escalade and im converting from drive by wire to drive by cable, I will also be using a non-electronic transmission so all t5hose wire have been eliminated. Here is a picture of the plug.

Looks like one of the plugs that goes into the TAC module.

Thanks guys, I just realized that if you have a DBW setup and are converting to DBC that it is required to add TPS and IAC to the new setup.

So here's another question, on a DBW throttle body, what is the sensor that looks like a TPS?

I did the same switch with my harness that was from a 2007 Express 6.0.

On the DBW the TPS is built into the main plug and controls. I purchased a new plug for the TPS and IAC from ebay.

I've also got an 02 Escalade LQ9, I kept the DBW TB.
There are 2 connectors, a TPS on the drivers side and the motor on the passenger. Pic below.
You've got a 411 ecu which can be programmed for cable TB. However, if it's tuned for an 02 f body cable TB, see if you can maintain the LQ9 MAF/IAT. Otherwise you'll need to buy both those items as well as a TB, IAC, and the associated connectors.

Unfortunately my engine didn't come with MAF and I'm switching the intake to an LS2 intake with a 90mm Edelbrock throttle body that I also have to buy! I will have to have everything reprogrammed on the ECM.

Sounds like you're going to be spending more on all the sensors, plugs, programming, intake, TB, Injectors, etc.....than you did on the motor.
Good luck and let us know what your combination works out to be.
