Hello, I just bought a 2002 Chevy Impala, with just over 149,000K on in. Everything is in tip top shape, runs smooth so far, steering feels good, but when I looked under the car there was a loose wire that was hanging down from under where the motor sits. Its a thick coil wire that looks like it was cut in half and the other half of the wire is just hanging down about 2 inches from the ground not connected to anything, what could it be?

It looks like the plastic covering for the oil level sensor on the side of the oil pan.
