I have a 99 sohc and had issues with trash wiring from old age, and repaired all of that. I can take some pictures of my wiring when I get home, I also have my 1999 3000GT factory service manual set and can upload the wiring diagrams for that area as well.
Sohc wiring question
Some rats were chewing on some coil pack wires and I have a question.
I was experiencing spark related driving problems a few days ago and decided todo a tune up and when it came time to swap to a new coil pack I noticed some rats had helped themselves to the wires (in the past AND recent past) I was building myself a new harness when I noticed I have a disconnected wire and no idea if this wire was disconnected when I had the car running good a week ago.
The wire in question goes to what looks like a capacitor and maybe an igniter. It is Part of the MALE end of a plug. The capacitor and other business are connected to the FEMALE side of the plug.
The wire in question is bright green with a white stripe. This gives me a clue.
The wire in question, when "plugged in" connects to a brown wire leaving one of the electrical doo-hickeys. That doo-hickey has two wires coming out of it. A black one and that brown one I was just talking about.
Based on those clues, I'm hypothesizing, that this lone disconnected wire MIGHT be a ground.
Please look at the pictures and send me ANY feedback or trolls.
