Dealing with CoAx Cable and Wire

Understood... Thing is,,, in the harness when it comes to the plug,,, the two become 3... There is a solid white wire (the third) on both sides of the plug connection...? What's the white and where does it go in the wire length? Crazy. There is foil and naked wire (that kinda surrounds everything) in the harness length. Hard to describe...
BTW,,, after delays and waiting for parts I finally have the IRS back in and all seems well. Remote speed bleeders and all. Brakes work like I've NEVER felt them (the calipers were ghosts and the pads were cracked and weird).... Weak ebrake and a spring (see pic),,, lol,,, that I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how it goes BACK into the handle in the cabin.
I've still never really driven this car but am getting close. Have a new rug set and I've recovered the seats. I'm stoked.
I've been working on this,,, more (see photo).

Hello JJJ
Looks like the spring goes door side of the handbrake assembly
Not the best of photos - looks like one of the spring end goes in the handbrake lever - could not see where the other end goes to
Cheers
Steve
Please note - look after your limit switch (rear of the handbrake lever) - I smashed mine taken the seat in and out when doing the rust repairs

Hey Steve!!!
Those pictures are awesome... Thank you. Pictures worth 1000 words... I am sure that with those I will be able to get things back together. Then,,, it will be about getting maybe just and inch made up in the pull, to more effectively set the brake. What a thing.
And Greg,,, anything you can offer about that bundle of wires would be a help. I get voltage values from all of them (including the naked wire in the line) but don't know how and can't make heads or tails of what I'm getting. I think that I had questioned what the values were supposed to be in the past but don't remember anyone know WHAT the readings were supposed to be. I am terrrrible with electrical stuff.
R&R in Berkeley California for the week. 2000miles away from the Cherry Pie aka CrabApple,,, but she is still on my mind. What an affair, lol
Thank you all so much for your help

To test the VR sensor jack the rear of the car up and put it on jack stands so it is secure. You will be putting it in gear and running the rear wheels. Remove the connector from the diff sensor and use a multimeter on AC volts, put the car in gear with speed about 40km/h the DVM should read more than 5vrms. If this is good then the speed sensor and wiring is good.
There are zener diodes on the outputs of the speed interface if these go bad then the unit will not output an square wave.

I'm a little worried about spinning the tires that fast on stands, I must admit. And the second part,,, I'll have to figure out a way to take those readings and see what I get.
THANK YOU, Man!

As long as the car is secure it should be fine. I did it when I was installing my electronic cruise control, albeit I had the car pointed out of the shed.
You'll hardly touch the throttle to spin the wheels at 40km/h off the ground.
To take the readings you will need a multimeter, a cheap one will do, better still if it has frequency measurement. Put it on AC volts. The connector between the VR sensor and interface unit is inside the boot.

I DO KNOW THIS... I did do something similar when I had JUST gotten the cage back in place. Wheels up and spinning. I was getting a reading off of the diff sender (don't remember the numbers) so,,,, lol, I have done it. Don't know if it was 40km/hr tho... I need to figure this out. Trip computer works as well.
Just started laying down carpets. Had to rebuild the entire back shelf. Wood was just too brittle. It need doing.
The blue and black. I've found similar connectors in side the cabin and under consoles
