2000 Hyundai Sonata 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 139k miles

my 2000 hyundi sonata, would not start today. On top of the engine under the spark plug cover coming out of the right side is a little wire that move from right to left and then attaches to a little bracket outside the engine on the right side.(Right side if your standing in front of the car). Any ideas or to vague?

OK, still a bit of a challenge it does not look familiar at the moment, any chance of checking the wire codes, that is colour and trace, for both wires, that way I may be able to match it on a wiring schematic.

Hi there,

OK, this is an Earth wire, it will join the other coil and hook up to a wire on the fire wall.
