Is it a VX? What model?

Any pics? It's either EGR lift sensor or windshield wiper harness is my guess. Hard to say w/o pics.

Help us help you.

Most likely EGR lift sensor.

EGR lift sensor is for Exhaust Gas Recirculation. If you have a D16Z6, that does not have the EGR system. Thus, the EGR wiring and system is not compatible and is useless.
