Car is a 1973 1.7 with original D-jet fuel injection. Wire looks to be tan or faded brown, and exits from the wiring harness under the intake plenum on the passenger side along with a green-red wire that goes to what I think is the oil pressure sensor. I've tried to capture it in the attached picture.
So, where is this wire supposed to go? Gary |

It's not all that uncommon to see the AAR wired to the 15 (+) terminal of the coil.

Is it just because the coil is closer and easier to get to? Guess I'm in the fix it right camp rather than the easy patch camp unless there's a compelling reason. Gary |
