    Mouse ate completly through the wires of this module on top of engine. Can someone help me identify. There are 5 wires 1 red 1 brn one brn with strip and two tan.

    The two tan are exactly same, so I am trying to figure out which wire to splice back in.

    For some reason I can not upload pics. tried all formats jpg giff and zip. All were less the required size. I wish there was some help on this one as even a 7k file will not upload.

    There is a metal cylinder right next to dipstick. About 2" in dia. On top there is a molded connector housing pointing straight into the air.

    thanks

    Can you solder and heatshrink the wires back together or did they get chewed up pretty bad?

    Does anyone have electrical for EGR wires. As I said there are two tan which makes no sence. I can not splice the wires back together unless it does not matter which tan goes to which tan.

    Just checked my wife's and her wires are Red, Black, Brown and two wires that are either light tan or just grungy white. One is solid, one has a black stripe.

    Guess I can't help any more than that if they aren't the same as those. Maybe they're different since her's is supercharged?
