NEED HELP! messed up something! (alternator?)
well basically i was finishing up today with my head/intake install, and somehow i managed to slip out the fuel rail UNDER the wiring harness that has all the sensors over the driver side valve cover (connects to fuel rail see pic), and when i was untangling it i managed to snap this little red wire off the alternator (im assuming).. im guessing i need to take off the alternator? and then do what? i have no idea how to fix this? any help would be appreciated! im hoping i can fix this **** up so tommorow i can start this car up! its been down a week now heres the pics:
you can see the wiring harness to the right of the fuel lines, imagine the wiring harness under the fuel lines

I've had the same thing happen to me. That's the "exciter wire". My tiny red wire was ripped from the connector. I removed the connector from the alternator, pulled the guts out of it, re-crimped the wire into the connector, then slid it back through. The piece isn't as tightly held as normal, considering I had to drill the weatherpack out to get the metal clip back through, but it's been on there for over 2 years.
