Good morning,

Does the one end go to the throttle body?

Hard to tell by the picture.

One end of wire comes out a firewall. Not sure where the other end goes. But this is the picture of the new sensor. The entire metal end of the sensor was broken off so it might be sticking out of whatever it screws into.

Okay, that is the coolant sensor for the computer.

The two wires for the sensor go back into the car and over to the PCM.
