Hey all-
did a good 6 hours of wiring yesterday. coach started right up, so I think we're good!
at least for now-
because I keep finding these things
can someone help me with this little prize?

this is black wire stripped at end, green wire with male bullet type connection passing through stripped black wire end, then taped.

as I pulled on it to see where it ended, this came up from. It was simply dangling down the side of the valve cover.
It obviously has a plug, but any ideas where it goes? to a ground no doubt. does anyone recognize the black harness assembly? it looks to come from the compressor?
I spent a good amount if time opening looms to inspect yesterday. There is a loom into the engine area at the top front right of the engine, looking down from the top. it splits across the top of the engine to the left, going to the alternator, and another bundle of wires goes to the rear, along the right top of the engine, near the right valve cover.
one of these looms was in really bad shape, like it had melted from either engine heat or fire.

could straight engine heat do this? the wires inside seemed okay, if not a bit worse for the wear-

I replaced all the loom in the engine compartment, and will keep an eye on it.
