I returned from a recent trip to find a loose wire hanging down from the engine compartment of our 2005 FIAT Ducato 2.8JTD C-class. There was also loose tape unwound from the wire hanging down as though it might have been taped up to something nearby or maybe insulating a bullet connector.
It appears to either have been taped to the black loom 'A' above it in the photo or to have been formerly connected to the terminal (earth?) on the gearbox casing, above left in the photo.
Also of interest is that the reversing lights are no longer working but I can't say that this happened at the same time or not.
Any help from owners of similar vans in taking a quick look under the front bumper centre looking upwards into the engine bay towards the nearside who could confirm what the wire should be doing would be appreciated.
The view in the photo should help to identify what I mean.
