What is this?
« on: July 31, 2014, 08:28:13 PM »

I just found this unplugged wire on the XJ, with no sign of where it's supposed to go. It is cable tied to the wiring loom that goes to the positive terminal of the battery, but ends a few inches short of the battery.

battery temp sensor best guess if it is by the battery
not normally needed in the uk
 a 22kohm resistor will simulate it

Don't worry, I'm pretty sure there's one of those floating around unconnected in my engine bay.

no check engine light so nothing to worry about. plenty of unused odd connections in the loom around the car
