Omega V6 engine bay wiring
« on: 17 December 2009, 16:38:48 »
I've just replaced the Thermostat on a V6 Omega B, on putting everything back together I've got a lonly plug, I'm sure I've missed something?? the plug is coming from the loom on the N/S bank near the dipstick, I cant find a wire to plug into it and I have totally forgotten if it was or not plugged in before, a picture could be really handy, it's the short Male plug that comes from the loom???? just hope it's not under the manifold!!!

to dark to count pins at mo, yes it does start and run, I know it's not the cam sensor ( that plugs at the end of the loom ), and it's not the TPS either, I'm actually thinking knock sensor mite be a option, I'm going to have a look in the morning, I blame it for being cold

the easiest way to explain is where the main part of the loom heads towards the fusebox its underneath that, there is currently a EML light on ( code read it in the morning now ) but this maybe down to a problem on the cam sensor, it got caught on removal,
