One wire or the whole connector? If one wire, you should see a connector missing a wire. If the connector, you should see the other connector end somewhere close.

Do the wires from the O2 sensor in question terminate in a connector?
Take a look at the image I have attached. It's for the Ram 1500 pickup. Tell me which one it is, and I can look up the schematic for it so I can identify what color wires you need to look for coming out of the ECU.
