Where does this connector go?

What is this connector and where does it go?

Looks like a broken off oil presure switch, or something.

 

Where is it located, approximately? On top of the transmission?

 

Is this on the STE? If it's a oil pressure switch, maybe that's why the car won't start?

[jeremy]

yes, it is on the STE...I noticed it and took the picture last weekend....the picture is where the airbox normally is, y ou can see the fuel lines in the top right of the picture, it comes out of a harness in the back of the bay and IIRC, it is by the trans. I glanced quickly to see if I could figure out where it went, but I didn't see anything that stood out right away. The car still starts though

IAT Sensor? If it IS that, it looks like it's been broken off.

IIRC it should plug in to the back of the air box.

[jeremy]

the plug that goes into the airbox is still there....this one was hanging down behind everything

i know exactly what that is. it's the connector that goes to the power steering rack. my STE has exactly the same thing - the connector broke off and is now hanging like yours is.

so you didn't fix it yet??

[Guest TurboSedan]

nope not yet i noticed it hanging when i put my lowering springs in but figured i'd get back to it later since i don't even drive the car yet. hopefully it's an easy fix.

that's the connector that kicks up the idle speed when you're at full steering lock
