[Wanted] Suspension wiring connector

Connector and short Length Of Wires to pressure sensor at the rear of the air suspension reservoir tank.
Despite replaced sensor, mine still says pressure is 28 bar. I have corroded/broken wires or damaged Connector.

Hopefully I can then fix my Air Suspension Inactive fault Cool Andrew

Hmm, yes, should be @ 13 bar.

Have you tested the resistance of the wires at the connector?

What happens if you leave the connector off ? .

Connector off makes no difference.
Sensor removed so that reservoir tank is at atmospheric, the connected still shows as 28 bar.
Connections to suspension ECU checked and good.
Diagnostics tool can instruct system depressurisation, and it has been running OK at normal ride height - it just won't go up or down.
I damaged outer part of connector during removal, but repaired, checking electrical continuity from all 3 wires to terminals. Fault displayed before that damage.
Therefore diagnosis of wiring defect.

So . . . I need to replace connector and back-track wiring to find defect and repair. Presumably it routes into the spare wheel well/boot area somewhere, and I would prefer to at least have a good connector ready before I put it in the ait and start removing underbody shields etc. Andrew

You have a 2010 so wiring may be different, but the sensor wiring heads straight back to the ECU on MY02
