Smugglers box - white wire????

While removing some of the AC components (basically just the blower) from the smugglers box so I could get to the steering coupler, a white wire popped out of the blower housing (which sits on top of the condensor). The wire almost looks like it's a temp sensor, not like it was actually connected to anything. I'll try to get a pic when I return to town end of the week.

Anyone know off hand what this is, and where I should stick it (ok, all the smart comments already went through my head!!!).

Thanks,

It's a temperature sensor and it slides into a tube in the evaporator coil. I believe it functions by sensing changes in air pressure. If you still plan on using your AC don't cut it or kink it.

Ah, super. I was thinking looking for a place on the blower housing to stick it. I'll look on the condensor itself then.

Thanks man!!

There is a hole on top of the evap/blower housing that it will slide into.
