2001 Ford E-Series Van Two Wheel Drive Automatic 60000 miles

Pack rats ate a 2 wire line black and yellow wires located in the rear right side where the tranny mounts to the engine under the cover in the cab.All I have is where goes into the connector. to the left is a bracket holding a good size wire harness. this a small 2 wire harness going to a connector but I have no idea where the wires originate?[img:2a0f78745b]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/329367_van_001_2.jpg[/img:2a0f78745b]

OK I see the wires that are taped at the blue connector. Can you follow it up to the engine and tell me where it goes to or include a pic of where it leads you. From that I can look into the wiring diagram and figure out where it goes from there. I also need to know what size van E150 or 250etc. Does this have A/C and if so does it have rear A/C as all this changes the wiring diagram. Get back to me with as much info as you can and I will go through the wiring diagrams and see what I can find.

It's in a e350,rv with manual air.

The input to the connector is what I'm trying to figure out. the cut ,(taped) wires are black , green and a wire shield.Out of the connector is a yellow/red wire ,a green/purple wire and a black wire ,they go into a bundle of wires that go along the injection rack on the right side of the engine.I can't see where they come out.

I believe the wire should go to a knock sensor located in the tunnel under the intake. Is that correct. I can't get at it with out major surgery. can I relocate a new sensor to a more practical location that will still function.

No it isn't a knock sensor as that is on the side of the engine block under the exhaust manifold. Now if you can see the sensor at all can you tell me kinda what it looks like? Where is it on the intake? Again I assume you are talking about the blue connector with the taped wires on the right side of the pic? Get back to me and if needed I will find pics of the sensors on the intake and you can tell me what one is it.
