Talking Alternator / AC Belt Frayed [solved]
I had an alternator/AC belt fray and before I could shut the car down it severed one of the electrical wires near it, trying to figure out what the electrical wire goes to? It's the only one that is near the belts.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Probably the crankshaft sensor but a photo is absolutely necessary.

That isn't a very good picture.

Doesn't appear to be the crankshaft position sensor. Maybe the wheel speed sensor. Should be much easier to see from the driver's side wheel well with the splash panel removed.
