    clean it and see what color it is. I know there is a single wire around that area that is the bank 2 knock sensor.

    I know the wire you speak of. It's for California/Massachusetts emissions controls that are not installed on your car.

    That makes sense i guess it would be cheaper to use just one type of wireing harness for gm

    now I got to find a different reason for security light blinking nonstop
