Default I gave birth for the first time (first motor pull success!)

<center><img src="http://www.audizine.com/gallery/data/500/Photo_113.jpg"></center><p>Here is a pic of it all out! Everything went smoothly minus ONE wire that was snagged when removing the engine/tranny. The wire is connected to a plug that is located directly above where the drivers side drive-shaft connects. Does anyone know what this sensor is? the wires go through the main wiring harness so I will most likely just splice a new connector in? or reuse the old one if possible. Does anyone know if this connector is just two wires? haha.... lots of questions about that one wire.


Regardless, very happy with one and a half days of work

I think it is the reverse light sensor, but can't remember for sure.

Default You did the exact same thing I just did!

Let me guess; clutch slave caught it on the way out? I went to NAPA and got some interesting little connectors; they look like butt-connectors but they have solder inside of them. hit it with the heat gun and the shrink wrap pulls the wires together and then melts the solder. Done and Done.
