Disconnected wire
 
Hi all,

This is on a '93 2.5L YJ.

I've just run across a wire near the MAP sensor that's been
disconnected, and it looks like it should be connected to something. It
was just tucked behind the valve cover, and I don't like the idea of
bare contacts being "just tucked behind" anything.

It's a brown and yellow wire, and the only thing I see in my Chilton's
that has that color is related to the starter/clutch interlock switch,
and if that's what it is, that would explain why it'll start with the
clutch out. :)

Problem is, I don't see anything to plug it into that it will reach.
There isn't much wire between where it exits the harness and it's tip.

Am I on the right track? /If/ I wanted to plug it in, where would I?

TIA.

Re: Disconnected wire
 
There are on some cars a wire that should be connected for the engine to
operate correctly in high altitudes. Could this be it? Maybe somebody with
more knowledge in this group could give an answer.

Re: Disconnected wire
 
On the '91 engines there was a temp sender on the left rear corner of
head. Location and wire length look right for this. This was only for
the gauge or idiot light. The emissions temp sensor is in the front on
the thermostat housing.

There is a brown wire that may be for for AC control. Do you have AC in
the Jeep?
