Default Two cut wires

Hello all, I'm new here and have been enjoying reading and learning from others experiences here for about a month. I was wondering if someone may know what my two broken/cut wires go to or what they are for. One wire is solid red and the other is solid light blue, both laying next to the right motor mount just behind the right side cat converter. They go together and travel upwards to a connector approx three inches higher than the motor mount and attach to the metal wall that runs parallel with the right frt tire inside the engine compartment. If anyone has a clue what they are for I would sure be thankful to know. Have a great night/day everyone. Dave

Default Two cut wires

I wanted to clarify on the location of my wiring issue. They are laying on the aluminum subframe, just behind the motor mount, not the cat converter. If you where to look directly down from engine side if the right strut tower just a little aft of the tower and straight down you will see the connector and below that the two wires laying on the subframe. Also I have no engine lights, no noted drivability issues, or missing electrical options I know of. They may have been chewed up by a pack rat which is very common here in the southwest. Thank you again!

Welcome to the forums Dave,

I've clarified it a bit more by adding your vehicle details.
