    They go up and towards the driver side. There they connect (via a grey connector, near the driver side motor mount). Then the wires on the other side of that connector I believe feed up and into the main fuse box, or into the under dash fuse box

    electrical wires. they come from the actuator "sensor" i guess thats what it is, and go up towards the starter. i have looked and looked cant seem to find where they go.
