    Hey everyone,

    Recently had a pulley replaced and the dealership had to remove the oil cooler to access. I was detailing the bottom of the truck today and noticed this plug, unplugged, just chilling. Any idea what it could be/do? Trucks been running fine with it unplugged.

    Thank you. I’m a little surprised it being unplugged didn’t trip a light on the dash.

    Either way, it’s plugged in now.

    The ligh goes on when the circuit is grounded. Unplugged sensors will set CEL light. Thats why they missed it.
