Found THIS under the hood today...
Did a quick check under the hood this weekend and discovered this wire “chewed” right at the damn sensor (or whatever it is).
Cant’t seem to find it on oem.com; what is this sensor for and what is it called? Assuming it has to do with oil.
I’m not sure how far back I’ll have to go to replace this wiring.
Looks like the wiring harness is factory sealed along with multiple other leads... and the sensor doesn’t seem to have enough for me to solder it back on.
Wire appears to be chewed, but I don’t think it was.
Not sure if soldering would change the performance of that sensor either, might be a waste of time.
Any help, I mean ANY light that can be shed on this, would be greatly appreciated!!

Okay, it’s the harness plug that connects to the

Oil pressure switch
but now what...?

Disregard, I got this!
I think that female pin connector can be backed out of the plug. Once I do that it's a simple solder-a-longer-wire operation.

40 minutes start to finish and didn’t cost me any money. Gotta love problems like these.

Good to see you fixed the chewed wire. I'm just wondering what other activity the little animal got up to since that connection is right at the top of the engine.
