3 wires cut by the ECU

Any idea where these are coming from/where they go?

EDIT: The green/yellow is for the ECT which explains why my temp gauge wasn't working.

Ok, well after some looking around I found out that the green/yellow wire was the wire for the ECT singal to the cluster. For some reason that was unplugged from the ECU clip.

Did your car have an AEM EMS installed before? That might explain it.

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure. I put the yel/grn wire back into the ecu plug and my temp gauge started working, I'm not sure what the other two are for though.

Tell me what looms they are in and I will tell you what they go to. For example the one you reconnected went in a dash loom. Are the other two from the same loom?
