What is this wire???
#12
I recently purchased a 2006 Silverado 1500 WT extended cab 4WD. When I opened the hood there is a wire that is bolted to the hood on the driver's side directly above the master cylinder. the wire has been cut and is just hanging there. The part number is 9982. Is this some sort of old ground wire for something or is it something else. It does not seem to effect the truck, hopefully someone has one and can tell me what it is used for.

On my truck, there is a braided harness with round eyelets, one connects to the firewall pin and the other to the hood pjn; then attached to it is a harness of 2 small wires attached to the braid that extends to the hood lamp - then the braid and wires are secured to a plastic stiffener then covered in what looks to be 5/8 prorective conduit. The light assy has a springy plastic housing that easily snaps in and out of the hood and when removed, hangs upside down causing it to shut off when the hood is opened for any lentgth of time (battery draw). This harness can easily be forgotten when closing the hood, or even get caught when opening/closing. I actuallyjust repaired this harness on my truck today as the ground braid eyelet had come detached from one of the pins.
