2016 2ss 6sp salvage title Frankenstein fix
Hello
Just bought my first Camaro. It does have a salvage title because of a passenger front fender bender. The guy I bought it from was a second hand owner and didn't know much about the repairs. It runs and drives great! I'm not getting any codes or anything. I had my head under the hood looking around and I saw some electrical tape bundles and explored further and found this hacked "fix". It looks like a relay switch and something else (I have no clue ) attached. The wires run down the side of the radiator which I don't think is the correct location. If I followed it correctly, one goes to the magnetic ride control sensor and I'm not sure from there. Any help in figuring out what this is would be very helpful. Thanks guys |

My guess is someone tried to bypass/tinker-with/sharpshoot/jury-rig this system, if the '16 SS even has it (?)
The original thread is here https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showt...=506628&page=2 and this came from the last post which was just a week ago or so. There's some handy diagrams attached to the post too. Quote:

Those wires and relay need to be covered insulated better. Thats an underhood fire waitin to happen.

I'm thinking it might be an engine cooling fan resistor? What do you think?

Just duct tape it and you'll be fine.

Can you peel back the wrap on the harness side a bit to see what color the wires are? Would also be good to know if there’s any wires tucked in there that they didn’t bother connecting.
Right front position sensor should have 3 wires: yellow/white, black/gray, and brown/red. RF strut actuator should have 2 wires: brown and black/white.
