Ok this is a wire that appears to be a ground, im like 99% sure it is. ITs on the engine harness and has a hole for u to bolt it on wherever u want...but i dont know where it goes ???

The other wire im unsure of is a wire connected on the firewall on the left side of the engine bay(passenger) thats a ground next to that motor thing on the firewall...im pretty sure it connects to the left back side of the tranny or motor

Hmmm, sounds like it might be the wire that bolts to one of the actual housings under the UIM. Then plugs onto a metal piece on the upper firewall on the passenger side.

That is where one of my grounds goes to. One side is oval (to housing) and the other has a connection on it (to metal piece on firewall).

Not certain if that is the one your talking about but hope it helps.

I know the one on the firewall bolts to the housing under the UIM.

Had a brain fart and didn't notice you mentioned a second wire. I am not fully sure where that one goes to. Been awhile since I looked at my grounds.
