hello ha everyone me cars done and on tuesday morning they turn the key
but we have one problem
we have on electrical connector that is not connected and cannot find what it goes to -- green with a single pin off the main loon fron the ecu
we not longer have the intake pipe did it have a sensor on it? we are not sure please have quick look at tell me where it should go
also it it was on the itake pipe o we need it?
here is a pic of the connector
it is on loom under the throttle contol and sc intake
i am hoping it is just a spare one?



cheers guys and gals

Shish or Lauren area better bet, but from my own experience I can tell you not every connector actually goes somewhere in the SC engine bay!!

Just had a look on mine - it looks like that wire goes off under the throttle body somewhere, but I can't see where it ends up

[pistol supercharged pete]

doh is it connecte or does it fell loose
cheers for looking

[MartG]

Feels taut - I think it is connected to something. Given its a single wire my guess is its a sensor of some kind - maybe knock sensor ?

Hi Pete,
i've taken a look at mine but can't find it but i was looking with a torch.
Will try again in daylight!!

If this is it, it is the knock sensor Pete:

[waynestoyotamr2]

Not sure - only a stab in the dark, and I aint even started my SC for about 3 months never mind lifted the engine bay - but it looks like the clip for the engine bay fan?

However, having this disconnected would not cause the ECU light to come on.....

[Matt_J]

My bet is on the knock sensor, it will definately throw codes and put the engine MIL light on without it. There aren't many connectors round there for it to be to be honest.
