Default the 3 ground cables on the eg tranny...

one goes to the chassis, one goes to the vtec solenoid, and one came off and I can't tell where it's supposed to go. it's an 8 gauge wire. does anyone know what it connects to. it isn't effecting anything that I can tell but i'd like to put it back where it's suppposed to be.

Pics would help, but I'm sure as long as the thick gauge ground wire is attached to the chassis you'll be fine. Just attach the final ground to wherever will reach.

I think it goes from the valve cover to the front frame right around the driver side light, but ive seen it go to the power steering bracket as well. Im assuming this is the ground your talking about, if not oops!

I'm not sure but when I took the tranny out to do the clutch, there were the 3 cables attached to the ground terminal on the tranny itself. The 4 gauge ground that goes to the chassis, an 8 gauge that goes to the vtec solenoid, and what I had left over was this 8 gauge little bugger. I just noticed that I don't have a ground going from the valve cover to the header panel so maybe that's the one. without a picture or something I'm kinda lost on this one. maybe only 2 cables are supposed to attach to that tranny ground terminal.
