Trying to identify the source of my CEL, I found this, which seems to be a broken ground.
Can you please tell me where does this belong to and where should it be connected?

Thanks.

I think its supposed to go where that other ground is if I remember right. You can get a new ground terminal anywhere. Just cut the old one off, put new one on, and crimp it. Should still be long enough.

The source of you CEL is often aided by the code

That's true. My codes are P0325 (knock sensor), P0440, P0443, P0446. Last three have to do with the EVAP system; yet, I don't really know how to troubleshoot that: I was checking the back, by the fuel tank, for bad connections and then I took a look at the engine bay when I saw that.

Thanks. I will definitely do that.

Does anyone know the module this ground is for?
