Default Random unplugged cable?




Hey guys I was replacing my starter but had to stop for a few months to go to Afghanistan. I’m back and ready to get it running again and I see this random cable here that isn’t connected to anything and quite frankly I don’t remember if I unplugged it as it’s been a few months.. it’s located right next to where the starter goes. Any ideas?

That is one of the connectors for the Secondary Oxygen sensors that are located after the catalytic converters.

Does your car have headers? I would guess that if you do have headers, you may not have a provision in the connection pipes for the Secondary O2 sensors. And if you don't have a check engine light, I assume you have a tune that has the codes for those sensors turned off.

In any case, nothing to worry about really.

Thanks brother I really appreciate your help now I’m stuck trying to clock the new starter to get it to clear the headers lol
