Ok, I decided to check out this 'repair' to the wiring (which turned out to be nothing of the sort). After what I've found, I'm after some help again! Firstly, here is the front crash sensor, located on the slam panel (the red/white wiring underneath is completely seperate, but the pic makes it look connected):
The wiring to the front crash sensor begins from a section of loom just to the left of the engine ECU, behind the passenger side headlight (it's the wiring starting in middle, then going to the right of frame, it's meant to be in that black plastic jacket.)
At this stage, there appear to be 4 wires: blue/white, purple/black (2 of) and plain blue. Then, on their way to the crash sensor they split. The blue/white and purple/black run to the front crash sensor (you can see them going into the plastic jacket, which then heads down) and the blue and purple black run to...
Ah...err nothing. They are bare and open (as you can see next to the engine cover)!
At one point, the wiring going to the crash sensor clips onto the fan housing to keep it out of the way. Just underneath this is another clip with section of plastic jacket, which logic would dictate is where this other section of wiring should head to. On my car, this section of jacket (pictured) is all that's left (the top section then runs to the crash sensor).
Can anbody tell me what this section of loom is (the 2 wires that on my car are disconnected), what it's for or where it's meant to go? If someone could have a look on their car I would be very grateful. Just to clarify, the other two wires definitely run to the crash sensor:
and are unbroken, yet it's still throwing up this error code, so this other bit of bodged wiring must be where my problem lies. I just don't know what it is or what it's for!
I've tried to make this as clear as possible, but obviously this is difficult, so if it's unclear please say and I will add more info where needed.
Thanks
