HELP ASAP

[Blackbird1084]

Need to know where this wire goes. A friend took it off while installing twins and now doesn't remember where it goes.

What kind of car and what's at the other end of the wire?

 

[Blackbird1084]

The other end is the harness. It's a 14' 5.0.

That heavy of a wire might go to the alternator? The end looks like something that goes on a very specific stud/mount.

True too, but those usually have a rubber cover, no? Seems if it's that close to the PCM, it would be some sort of case ground. But it does look like it goes to a specific post.

I don't have my wife's car handy to just look at it or I would have already found it.

Ground wire. Mounts on the post right behind the computer.

 

[Wes06]

yours looks more rounded, his looks more square with flanges that stick down.

but yes i think we can agree its a ground type wire

I think it has the flange's that stick down and flat edged. Looks like the nut is what is making it appear circular to me.

Ground wire are easy to check with a meter.

 

[Wes06]

ahh yes, you are correct.

seems skwerl found the mounting point, OP is he correct?

Looks like you need a new friend.

Glad the forum was able to figure it out.

 

[Hotrodtinker]

Wait... you're NOT supposed to have extra bolts and wires after wrenching on something?!? Heh heh...

Thanks skwerl! I really appreciate the help guys and so does my friend. Don't worry I'll be reminding him of this every time he touches it. Lol
