My 1997 Chevy C1500 WT 4.3L has a cable from driver's side of engine to a connection at the crankshaft sensor behind the pulley. The cable continues on for about 10 more but it is just hanging over the front crossmember. The end is a 2-wire male red connector. I see no place to connect it.
Any ideas?
My friend's 1993 Ford F150 4.9L had broken ears at the key lock cylinder, so it was difficult to turn the key. I removed the lock cylinder and tried to turn the opening at the back of the cylinder housing with a screwdriver. It moves a small lever behind the lock cylinder housing only slightly. Pushing on the lever has no effect. Friend says he doesn't use it and doesn't know what it's for. I seem to remember similar buttons/levers on other Fords to turn the key or something like that.
There is also a wire and little brass finger that fits at the front of the cylinder housing but will not stay in the mounting notch. I believe it is an alarm for key left in ignition. Should I cut the wire and remove it or cement it in?
I can't find any info on any of these problems.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
