During a evening of fixing I noticed an issue with my lovely octy. I have found a broken wire in the engine bay (yellow wire that comes from what I think is a solanoid near the DV-can you tell im not very technically minded) I cant see where this wire goes so not sure what i need to fix so needing a diagram to help, any body out there got one.

Thank

Sid

Edit-Car had no warning light on until i touched the wire and now it has engine managment light on. (I have had the 17705 code for a while though)

definitely been botched in the past as you can see from the harness and the routing that it is meant to run inside of the rubber.

~As for what it does I'm not sure, I can't even think of what that connector is for.

That's the N75 valve next to the DV. Wouldn't have thought the car would be boosting correctly without a working N75.

The car is running very bad at the moment, starts with a struggle, surging when running and down on power. Do these symptoms sound like N75? also where does the wire go to on the other end so I can trace it?

Yep your N75 isn't working. I'd be looking for the rest of the yellow cable, & join it up.

Thank you. Well my Sunday is sorted now car on ramp and away I go...
