Title: Where should this wire go?
Post by: adscan on June 29, 2012, 13:25
When changing the spark plugs I noticed this wire was loose. It looks like it should be bolted down somewhere. The is a plug at the other end. It is in the centre of the pic.

Anyone have any idea?

Not sure which one I'm meant to be looking at, the one going down from the right of the loom past the O2 sensor plug?

It's not the MAF wire is it?   s:shock: :shock: s:shock:  Do you have a pic of the other end?

This is the one I am holding. It has a flat metal plate.

It looks like it should be earthed on the block somewhere.

It's not an earth but if you pop your plastic cover off and undo the bolts holding the coil pack wiring down, it attaches under the bolt on the side nearest to where it is now.

It's an RF noise suppressor
