2000 cherokee unknown sensor

[toyota1]

does anyone know what this sensor/connector is and its proper location? Its a single pole and just has the one bolt hole pictured.

I think that is just a ground with a connector.

Or, that is just a connector that hold a harness in place.

It's an ignition noise capacitor. It helps stop ignition noise from interfering with the radio or sensitive computer circuits like the crank sensor or wheel speed sensors.

Also, try motorcraft FL1-A filter for your next oil change!

Nothing wrong with NAPA Gold. They're private labeled Wix filters, and many of the model numbers are made at the Gastonia plant.

I believe he was referring to volume of the oil filter. Fl1A is huge compared to a standard 4.0 filter

Ah, ok. Wix 51515 as well (NAPA Gold 1515), interchangeable with FL1A. By the way, does anyone know where the FL1A is made? Being a Purolator-manufactured filter, is it made in NC at one of the Purolator plants (Shelby maybe)? Interesting choice, as both brands (Wix and the FL1A Purolator) are both potentially made locally (in-state). They also have the same parent company now too, as Mann+Hummel owns both.

They're both about $4 on Rock Auto; they're both regarded as great filters and I'd use either one. I've only used the Wix.
