Wiring Question with Pictures Attached
Good afternoon,
I was working on several problems/issues in my XJS V12 engine compartment when I noticed several disconnected wires located in the front of the passenger side.
For example, there was a black wire coming off the part attached to the air cleaner (circled in green) that looked like it belonged to a yellow black wire (connection circled in red). Although there was another black wire coming from the part in green goes to a connection captured in the yellow rectangle.
There was another disconnected brown/tan wire that looked like it belonged to another brown/tan wire (connection circled in teal).
I connected these wires for illustrative purposes. I have looked at the wiring diagram and it looks like yellow/black wires are related to fuel injection. However, prior to disconnecting the battery for other work, the car ran perfectly, so I assume the wires are for something else.
The yellow/black and brown/tan wires (that were not connected originally) run along a harness near the radiator.
Any idea if I have these wires connected correctly? If not, any help on where they belong? Wiring is my weakest area, but I have studied the wiring to try to figure it out. No luck so far.
As always,
Thanks!
