Please help - stupid squirrel ate through a wire - need help finding wiring diagram
Hi everyone, I found a stupid squirrel made a nest in my engine bay today. Right near the brake booster on the driver side. Little **** tore up a lot of the foam padding under the hood to make his nest. He also started to chew through part of the outer sheath of the wiring harness that resides by the brake booster.
Call it lucky or unlucky. The squirrel chewed through a thin white wire that has silver dots on it (assuming those are to help identify the wire?). I guess it could be worse, but it could have been better. Anyways, is anyone able to help me identify what wire this is and where it goes to? Or point me in the direction of a wiring diagram? I tried looking but I'm in a bit frustrated right now by the situation. Thanks in advance everyone. |

Thanks for taking a look for me, its actually the big chonky part of the wiring harness that is routed behind the brake booster. I've been looking and have no clue what that wire goes to. |

doesn't really matter what the wire goes to. oem's rarely just install spare wires. and squirrels rarely chew wires that are rarely used. pull the battery terminals, wait about 15 minutes, then splice in a replacement wire--need to use adhesive-lined crimps, check all other wires in the harness while you're in there. once done, check all your fuses under the hood, and under the dash, then reconnect the battery.

Thanks for the good advice. I was hoping to find out what the wire led to so I could ensure function once repaired. Thank you for the reminder about disconnecting the battery. |
