QuestionHere is a pic of the loose wire, hopefully you might be able to get some sort of idea from it. http://www.freewebs.com/freebiejeebie45/pic.jpg
As before I told you the code was p1492 meaning the battery temp sensor was reading to high of a voltage. Do you happen to know where this sensor is suppose to rest at. Someone told me it goes on the rear of the front bumper in front of the radiator, but I could not find any such location to put it at.

-----Question-----
The code 44 was still appearing today and ses light and battery light. I looked up under the car and wiggled around a loose wire that has been this way ever since I purchased the car. It is hanging right below the left fog light but it is not the wires to the fog light. I have no clue what it is too but I wiggled it around and cranked the car and walaa! no battery light or ses light. Have an idea about this? I took a pic of it but I don't think I can post it on here.

Hi Colt,
I don't have a Sebring to look at but maybe if you can look carefully with a strong light source at the wire and determine what the main color and trace color are,and what the end that is connected is connected to, then I might be able to determine what it is for, and where its two attachment points are located. Other than that, I can't give you any ideas.

AnswerHi Colt,
I can't see the wire colors but it appears that it is a severed cable. Can you locate the wires to which it was formerly attached? What is the other end of the cable attached to?
From your earlier description and the 1492 code I suspect that one end or the other end is attached to the battery temp sensor. That sensor is shown to be mounted in front of the battery on the rear side of the bumper reinforcement bar. So if that were the cable for the sensor and it is severed then that is why you are getting the 1492 code. The battery light may have come on because the pink/yellow wire from the engine controller to the sensor is a voltage carrying wire and if it were touching the metal object that would cause a short to ground and thus turn on the battery light. So you need to jack up the car and get under the left front side and look around for the sensor and its wire and the wire that used to be connected to end that is shown in your photo. You should be able to do this with the car elevated and good lighting. If you can read the wire colors, the sensor is supposed to have a black/light blue ground wire and a pink/yellow sensor wire that probably has 5 volts on it when the ignition is on.
