I was pulling out my motor a few weeks ago and had it all the way up to the windshield with the cherry picker and I was gonna disconnect the oil sensor, and the chain jus kinda twisted and pulled the wire right out of the sensor
the sensor is still where it supposed to be but the 2 wires arent in it.........how do i fix that??
at least i think its the oil sensor....its on the pass side of the motor right by the oil pan.
If anybody knows what to do can you please let me know.

Towards the back to the engine? That's the crank position sensor. Did you break the sensor or break the wires? I don't understand what you're saying. If you broke the wires, fix them. If you broke the sensor, replace it.

You can take apart the sensor and reconnect the wires if you want. It's a little tricky if it's your first time doing it. I tried and busted the connector on my first time so I just went to a dealership and ordered one.
And if you're wondering the wires are reversible so it won't matter how you put them back in.
