Hello guys!
Well I got my re manufactured trans and torque converter installed, also installed new trans cooler and WOW! runs great.Now my question is when I replaced the left side catalytic converter I had to remove the small cooler and a few hoses that were under it just to replace the heat shield on the converter and after replacing every thing I found one loose wire that I do not remember removing. It is under the reservoir were you fill the water and it is one red wire with a single straight round plug or crimp fitting on the end.Maybe it was not to anything but thought I would ask anyway, my check engine light is on and thought that wire was it.Thanks

Bill can you upload a picture of it?

 

I will try to upload a picture to give a better idea of what I am talking about.The wire is as I said with a crimped fitting on the end that is ether a plug or there to keep from shorting out or for a accessory that I do not have.

 

that sure looks like a crimp splice- wonder where the other end went?

 

It sure doesn't look stock.

 

If it is a crimp splice, then it is only crimped on the wire end because the open end has never been crimped, and that is what through me off and got me thinking it might be a plug. Like I said it might have the end crimped on to keep it from shorting,I will run a voltage test on it to see if it is hot and on/off with the ignition.
