Coolant temp sensor wires, please help.

Sorry for the multiple annoying posts but I cant seem to find this anywhere.

Ive searched the internet, my manual, my car, and this site.

I have the pigtail with the two wires coming off of it. I just have no idea where they go to.

I cant seem to find the original wires so I can solder these onto them. Does anyone happen to know where these original wires originate from so I can track them down?!

They have come from somewhere. Is it possible to have a pigtail with only one wire going to it?

Thanks for the help.

If possible someone could just run out to their car quick and track the wires to where they come from. I'm not looking for a specific location.. I just need to know where they come out of.

Does it come from the cluster of wires that connect to my starter? The wires that come out of that conduit?

Re: Coolant temp sensor wires, please help.

are you talking about a tpi engine? witch sensor are you dealing with ect, 9th injector timer switch ? or dash gauge sensor thats in the drives side head.

If you are dealing with the ect for the ecm or the ninth injector timer switch they come out of the harness that the tps, iac are on the rh side of the engine.

No, its a 305 TBI. Its the coolant temp sensor located on the passenger side, in the back.
