It's the red exiter wire on top of your alternator. It doesn't give much slack and may be coming out of the connector. You can get a replacement connector with an extended wire for the lack of slack at the dealership. They might give you one with 4 wires, just cut the ones you don't need. It cost about $25-$30. Get it replaced. I ran the same code for a good while and then it snapped on me and left me stranded.................

It's right on top, but you'll have to remove the alternator to get to it.................

Read the voltage from that plug to a good ground with the engine running. Should be 10 volts or higher. If it's not getting anything take the pin out of C2 15 and ohm it out to be sure it's not a broken wire.

Please tell me you're not taking the alt off just to get this plug out.
