<VV> Where does the small wiring harness from temp sensor and oil pressure sensor go?

Hi Joe,
Let's see if I can do this from memory.  There are two different small 
wiring harnesses that connect from the main engine bay harness to both the 
temp sender switch and the oil sender.  It depends upon the CORSA model or 
not, I THINK.  It has to do with either separating the two or running them 
together electrically.  The different LATE shop manuals show two different 
wiring diagrams.

The wiring goes through a large rubber grommet which will be much closer to 
very hard plastic at this stage.  It is about a one inch hole or so to 
allow the connector to go through since otherwise a much smaller grommet 
would be adequate for the one wire to connect to the snap switch.  The 
panel is the one which mounts against the block and has two pieces to grip 
on both the front and back of the outward curved, lower block, vertical 
rib, this is at the extreme rear and right lower part of the rear block 
surface, as I recall.  The smallish sheetmetal part mates to the damper 
door square outlet piece and the engine block.  HTHs and is clear enough 
for you without a picture.
