I peeled back the insulation to put my test light on and try and find out if it is live, I get no voltage with the key on car running or with ac on and I can not for the life of me find where this should go.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have been trying to find where the other end of this is with no luck. I peeled back the insulation to put my test light on and try and find out if it is live, I get no voltage with the key on car running or with ac on and I can not for the life of me find where this should go. Now the issue is 1. the AC compressor will not come on. also I have put this wire to ground with no spark or any signs of connection. It is located on the drivers side coming out from the loom under the air filter housing. 2001 Boxster s Any suggestion would be appreciated
