    Random Wires in Random Places

    I just changed my brake pads and saw a wire connected to my caliper on the right side of the car. Ive noticed the wire before in my engine compartment and it kinda looked like an aftermarket half hearted attempt at installing it. I think it is some sort of a ground wire but idk
    any help thanks

    Is it just a solid color or does it have two colors (main and tracer)? Ground wires from the Honda factory are normally solid black. But that doesn't mean is is a Honda wire just because it's black.

    yeah will do
    the wire was a single wire wrapped with a mesh metal tube.

    it was randomly zip tied in the engine compartment and then bolted to my caliper.

    I uninstalled it but I will put it back for photo reasons.

    hope the pics will explain

    thanks again
