Next to the PCM connector at the firewall, is a female connector on a short (approximately three inches) pigtail with five wires. I cannot find a male connector and cable to plug in. Where does this missing male and cable originate? Does this connect to body wiring? This is all right under the cabin air intake. Help!

Probably for something that your car does not have. We do not show anything by ECM like that.

Sometimes factory connectors are used in the manufacturing process that is removed when the car is taken for the assembly line.

The female plug is there, it is a six pin plug, it has five wires attached, and it is clean because there was a male connector plugged into it. This is just above an opening (hole) in the bodywork directly above and behind the r/f fender. Right in front of the ECU connection

If there is nothing near it and everything works let it go
