Where does this plastic wire shroud go?

Post by grew »

I'm either terrible at deduction, a bad searcher of the interwebs or both. I can't for the life of me figure out where this plastic wire shroud goes. Here is a picture. This is the upper right corner of the engine bay.

Thank you in advance.

I believe that wire harness actually serves the ABS sensor on the knuckle.

Or are you talking about that yellowish duct thing? That's actually the drain for the windshield cowel.

Edit -Just saw Pete’s post. Same thing here

The square conduit clips on to the crash bar mount there’s a pin that locates in a hole. The bottom of the clip breaks off and the whole thing falls off. If that’s what your asking about.

Sorry for my photo orientation.
It’s there as a guide for the 4C/ABS/wheel speed sensor wires.

On our previous 2006 XC70, I found this thing just sorta floating around in that vicinity. Never could figure out how/where it attached. It annoyed the heck outta me. Then I bought the 04 V70R & became acquainted with it when I was replacing the front 4C shocks.
