Washed the Jeep yesterday and saw this wire hanging out. It connects in a T shape above the transfer case. Not sure what it is, but since it came undone, I've been having response problems and a check engine light. Thanks.

x2. Looks the the wire got cut right by connector. Check the o2 sensor in you cataylic converter and trace the wire back from it.

Would that have anything to do with my response problems?
