anyone know what this wire is?

Gen 3 Camry LE V6

The wire emerges behind and to the left of the oil filter










Thanks

Compressor connector?

Here's an equally huge picture of the harness locations in your engine compartment. This is for a 95 v6.

This has been posted so many times....it should be STICKIED! ( I asked it too, so dont feel bad.)

It's an electric fan plug that is not used in your V6 because you have a hydraulic fan.

Also looks like you might have an oil leak coming from the oil filter adapter. I have the part number for the o-ring that goes there if you want it.

Thanks xtremeskier97

I've been having problems with my hydraulic fan, and hoped the wire might be the solution. It seems cruel that the connector is for an electric fan.

So I need an o ring for the oil filter .. I'd be grateful for the part number .... I have noticed the smell of oil, but the oil filter would be the last thing I'd have thought of.

Regards

What year is your car? If it has the 3vz-fe, then the part number is 90301-68005 for the o-ring that goes between the adapter and the engine. Im not sure if this will work on the 1mz-fe or not.

Thanks

It is a 3VZ-FE.............. but why do I need an o ring for an adaptor?

thanks
John

it will help stop the small leak from adapter to filter.

Oh, it is on the inner side of the adapter. Gotcha!
