Looked under my car after having new lower control arms installed and there is a hanging cable underneath in the center of car behind drivers' side
Any ideas what it is?
Thanks

Hi,

Follow it and see if it goes to the parking brakes. I believe it is a brake cable, but it's hard to tell for sure.

I attached the only pic I could find. See if it runs from the center near the park brake lever and then back toward the rear.

Let me know.

Joe

Something is weird. Not sure if you got my response, Hopefully you did. That it was the O2 sensor cable. Ziptied it
Thanks Joe

Alex,

No, I didn't get the other response, but no problem. I never would have thought it was the O2 sensor wire. Good Lord!

Regardless, were you able to take care of it?
