Ok, so I'm new to the forum, but I have been rebuilding my wife's 02 Jeep Liberty Sport because her cylinder 2 valve seat came out. After rebuilding the valves and heads and putting everything back together I have one plug nearest to the firewall on the left(drivers) side harness that I cannot for the life of me find where it plugs into. I have looked everywhere for the other connector end and after looking in a shop manual believe it maybe the fuel pump connection, but I am in need of some help. I have included a picture and have a video I took too. Any help would be much appreciated!!! :)

I can't exactly tell where you are in the bay...but I know there's a random connector that sits under the battery tray. Could it be that? Unfortunately I never knew what it's for...just remember it being there every time I removed the battery tray to complete some suspension work.

Could be knock sensor.
Looking at mine,an 06 and the pic, the other end is split into a pair of yellow&black,one to each sensor.
Must be somewhere down there.
Snake camera would be handy or point your camera down there and snap some pics to find it.

Hey all! So here's the low down... I just finished putting everything back together on my wife's 2002 liberty sport. It's getting spark to both banks and fuel as well. When I tore the engine apart I did not replace any of the timing chains. Before removing any cams I sent everything to top dead center by aligning TDC mark with the notch on the crank pulley and then making sure both cam shaft gear V-6 marks were at 12 o'clock. I then put a screw driver in the cylinder 1 intake and rotated the crank 2 times around watching the screwdriver rise completely, drop and then rise again to ensure TDC. After removing both cams I did not touch the crank . When I put everything back together I made sure the cam gears were set with the V-6 mark at 12 once again and the crank was still at TDC Mark. I then rotated the crank a full cycle (2 times) and repeated at least 5 cycles to ensure the timing V-6 marks always came to 12 at the same time. I believe the timing was set up correctly but I can't think of anything else that would keep it from running . Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
