You need to momentarily ground one side of that disconnected connector. It's the Black/Orange side. 1-2 seconds.

If this is a new to you vehicle I would explain to the customer that this (I'm pretty sure) is one of the years where a functional ABS (at that years level) may cause the vehicle if fully loaded to just cruise right through an intersection. I remember unplugging the relay behind the glove box on a lot of Ford trucks back then.
