Default what wires are these

When I installed my clutch a few weeks ago I pinched some wires in between the bellhousing and torque tube. Now I'm having some issues. Anyone know what the wires that run across the bellhousing (perpendicular to the torque tube) are?

Thanks

How about so more info about your problems?

The O2 sensor wires are close and maybe the starter wires, but if I remember everything else is in a harness.

The transmission harness runs parallel to the torque tube but it comes down the bellhousing and runs back to the transmission, there is also another set of wires that come out and run to the left side of the bellhousing (still part of the trans harness) and these go to both front wheel speed sensors.

What problems are you having?

If the wires are damaged, the torque tube will probably need to come back out to repair or you could remove the harness by lowering the drivetrain and slipping the harness out (I've done this).

I did the same thing, luckily I realized my mistake before I damaged the harness.

Sorry, not very helpful, but it is easy to do

That is a picture of all the wires that run back through the harness. If you give me some codes i will look up witch one is giving you a problem. If no codes then it is a ground and you have to fix that too.
