Q: Need help identifying a broken connector for 2011 chevy aveo ls 1.6L.

asked by on March 26, 2017

While changing a radiator hose I noticed a broken connector. It looks like it connects to the AC Compressor and splices off to a sensor on the lower block. the broken connector is a single pin and attaches to the main wiring harness, it's green and runs along the left side( facing engine) and is paired with a brown wire. Can you help me identify the part?
