Harness plug what’s it for?

Post by Uddyboy »

Hi guys, looking for a bit of help.
I am replacing my O2 sensor and two things .. I’ve found a plug to the right of timing cover and don’t know what’s it’s for.??? I’ll post a pic..

Also my car has single wire O2 sensor and the harness plug is missing and been replaced by a crimp, I’m trying to track a replacement plug and struggling to find one.. any help appreciated.

It is most likely a plug for the ac compressor or the low level oil sensor. But if you upload a picture I might be able to tell you exactly. I wouldn’t worry about getting a new plug just use some bullet or spade connectors.

Apple
:puking:
Somehow I'm not surprised :laughing we have no access to Apple devices so no real way of checking it. I believe Firefox, Chrome & Edge browsers are all available for Apple, I 'd try one of them

Yeah looks like the ac plug. And jimi photo’s work fine for me on my iphone. Just sometimes you have to select a lower quality of picture because the file is too big.

Cheers @BYRNEY / @JIMI / @MRHAPPY... I'll use the laptop until I sort the phone browser.
Regards the AC plug that makes sense, I do still have A/C but cannot see the connector it should plug into...

On another note, I'm trying to track down a single wire O2 sensor as mine is damaged at the cable entering the sensor and I'm running rich so i think it might be the culprit, any idea where I can get one, I've searched everywhere and really don't want to pay Toyota prices :D
