Where on the au v8 harness does the ait sensor plug in?
i have a engine harness to check but i cant see where it could go, or does it plug in somewhere else?
Also im assuming its a two wire :?

I'd image it would be where the sensor is mounted which is between the throttle body and the dog turd.

That's what i though, i have an AU engine harness here n front of me and i can't seem to find it there. Must be on a different loom? I'm running the AU AIT on my car, but i just wired it into the E series harness and used some random AU plug i found that fitted.

My thoughts exactly, i know where it should be.I cant see where it goes on the engine harness either.
I just thought if i could use the original plug from the harness :shock: rather than cut the plug off the ait.
Must be on another loom like you say
thanks for the replies :D

If you want a cheap alternative, i used the plug for one of the other sensors (same shape) and just filed off the wee plastic guide "fins" on the ait sensor itself, then the make shift plug just slides on over the top like it usually would.
