could be a secondary tie in signal return or power out....

on 150s and e series it varies...usually gem related power ...powerstroke i had was black and a return for ipr. my diagram from helm said it was empty. so that is a mystery


i would ohm it out and identify it. i assume its on the explorer?

there are power and ground hardware scenario variance..

i would follow it out....probably something with ac or climate control or gem power for it.
 
actually.......

look carefully....it is the ac...and it is pin 37 not 38.

38 is completely omitted and solid....not drilled.

Thats the 99 2.5 ranger chassis side of the 42 pin plug
 
The purple wire? Circuit 348 goes from A/C controls to the PCM.
 
No...its 38. Ac? Ac has is own plug down below the brake booster
that picture posted....it is CLEARLY 37. on a 42 pin there are 9 wires down each end bank. 36 is the o2 sensor....and 37 is ac....and purple. and. that is what the picture shows.

38 is ommited.

pop the little plug out and move it over....then it will be 38.


but it aint gonna work right either.
 
38 is plugged. you have 34-35-36-37-39-40-41-42 there.

i was being factious....meaning if you really wanted the purple wire to be pin 38 you could move it over.
