Where does this connector go to? Z32 maf for reference but I don't see anywhere to connect this other one?

It’s the intake temperature sensor, I’ve been trying to figure it out for a year and I recently found out what it was you can go to any O’Reilly’s or I think an autozone and they should have it 👍

^ this. It also looks like you can see where the IAT is supposed to go in the photo, under the brown MAF connector

is that a wiring specialties harness? I have a wiring specialties harness for my RB25 swap and it has a brown and grey plug meant for two different connectors, it's been several years but i remember that only one of the connectors was meant to be used.

​

Edit: never mind, that's a KA24 distributor cap. My bad!

Nah. I'm pretty sure it's the stock wiring harness with the z32 pigtail put on. Is it possible the Grey one was just used for the old maf?

No the old maf is not rounded and black. Im sitting in my 93 ka engine bay atm and i dont see that plug anywhere. Can prob ignore it.

Do you have ac? I could use a little help with a wire location

Aye mine does have ac, although I'm not sure how much I could help you with wire location 😅 Although I can probably try and let you know what I see on mine although my car hasn't run in like 2 years so I'm not even sure the ac works yet

Ok well. Theres a connector on the ac compressor, just above that on the same wire theres a branch that goes towards the front. Theres a black 2 pin connector on that and another 1 pin connector. My 1 pin is broken and i dont know where either of them go. Im assuming one goes to the ac condenser fan

I can't remember off the top of my head but whenever I get back to the shop to work on it on Monday I'll let you know. Although from what little I know of electrical magicness I'd think the 1pin would be for power and the 2 pin would be for actuating the pump or something 🤔. For reference my G35 ac pump has a single pin wire that connects to direct power to run it so the 1 pin might just be for that.

Maybe try powering the cable and see if the ac pump turns on? I know that on my g35 whenever I connect the power to the wire I can hear a click for the pump.

Ah well the thing is my connector to the pump is intact and connected. And it is one wire. Theres another near the condenser thats also 1 wire and my plug is missing on that one

There's a link to download the factory service manual.

Go to the EL section, near the bottom it has a wiring guide that shows every connector on the car, its stock location, and what it does.

It also has comprehensive wiring diagrams for everything in the car. wire colors, testing procedures you name it.

edit - if you're missing the connector, here are a couple of places I buy replacement ones at. So you could reconnect everything without modifying anything. Good luck.

Ya im aware of those thanks. I was asking cause he was right in front of it in that pic.

I think others have identified it but it's an IAT sensor connector. it's a little black looking 'stick' thing inside your airbox. It doesn't do anything for the engine, just OBD2 stuff. I have one if you want to pay shipping I'll send it to you.
