Loose sensor wires

[Purple]

What sensor are the wires linked to?

The wires at the bottom of the connectors appears to be loose, and may be related to my intake manifold making loud whooshing suction noises recently.

I presume it's a simple strip and re-fit job, or do I need to buy a new connector?

Throttle Position Sensor iirc?

I thought that, but can't see good enough from the photo. Mine have partially stripped right on the wires connecting into the TPS itself, but still works perfectly. Might solder them up though and cover them to make sure they last longer. You only need to worry if they have actually pulled out of the connector, otherwise do as above :)

I think the green wire might be out of the connector. The car "kangaroos" a bit now and there's the intake noise, so will be tidying up the loose wire tomorrow. So, is it the TPS connector? Might explain why the car lurches forward occasionally.

Yeah, common problem.
