New Member with broken ground wire!!!

[Bill RN]

I have a wire loom with (2) wires. I found the ring connector attatched to the firewall. One end is attatched to the hood and I assume is broke off from ring connector at the firewall. The weird thing is the wire is braided and not covered, and the second wire is flat with a hard casing over it. anyone know what these wires are for. thanks Bill

Usually there is a flat braid that goes from firewall to engine block ground. The other runs from hood to firewall. On an '04 they are not together in a loom, only the firewall to hood is in the loom
