Icon5 2009 accord hit in front end

I have an 2009 Honda accord v6. Was hit head on and pushed in front end. I basically had used front clip installed.
Have 2 lost wires that need a home that are on the duel fan wiring harness. There is I think supposed to be 3 plugs on wire harness, 2 go to fans 3rd plug is one in question which was smashed and just wires left hanging.
They look to be maybe been a 2 wire plug? The plug was crushed and no longer there, just 2 wires same length hanging there front drivers side area.
I assume they are supposed to be teamed up in one plug end, but cant find where they go to. Front end was mashed so have no idea where they went.
maybe under or to air box area?
wires are yellow with red tracer with silver spots and black with silver spots. very small diameter wires compared to fan plug wires on same part of harness.

The Yellow/Red wire and Blk wire goes to a 2P Blk connector that plugs into ECT Sensor 2. ECT Sensor 2 is installed at the bottom of the radiator.

Basically need to know where and what 2 wires go to and type of replacement plug end needed and where to get it from.

Front end was smashed, so I may be missing what they hooked up to? From front bumper, grill, radiator and support, condenser, battery, and air box
was all smashed, all have been replaced. just need two more wires to find home then it back and up running.

so need some help on this, local Honda dealership wont help me figure it out.

There appears to be various aftermarket sellers that have the pigtail connector with wires. Google Honda ECT 2 connector or Honda ECT connector. OBD Innovations is one seller.

Just found out it has the 4 cylinder in it not a six, I assume it does not change the sensor or wiring I need.

Having hard time finding the replacement plug with wires.

The ECT Sensor 2 wiring is the same for both 4 and 6 cylinders. No guarantees; but, this looks like the correct pigtail connector with wiring; so, that it can just be spliced in. The 4 cylinder is a K series engine and this is listed for K series.

Amazon has third party sellers with generic connectors; but, the OBD Innovation connector is a Sumitomo connector, which may be OEM.

Since the ECT sensor 2 is a female connector, you would look at the "wire side" for the terminal numbering shown in the image I posted previously.

Looking from the wire side, Yel/Red wire would be on the left and Blk wire would be on the right.

Thanks for help the link, exactly what I needed!!!

I probably will never own a Honda!!! It my girlfriend's car and her second Honda accord
Just from to how the dealership treated us in trying to get this part and figure out what it was. This BS been going on for over a 4 months of trying to fix her car and ordering parts from them. No matter what part I need they can't figure it out total BS!! I had to go on line then comeback figure out what it was and order the dam part what a joke.

Do not buy or deal with Bergstrom Honda in Oshkosh WI The parts department is a joke!!!

They are HONDA dealership they sell new and used HONDA, have parts department for HONDA parts and they put zero into helping us!! 4 guys sitting there not one would help look parts up or call Honda direct and ask. Just we don't know?? I even showed them your post and picture on where it was located on car. complete BS
They where no help, complete bull####.

To be fair, the information I provided you is more from the electrical troubleshooting manual. The parts people are looking at different information related to procuring parts.

well finally had time to work on it had friend come over with computer and hook it up.

we trouble shot it. have no fuel pressure and no spark when we had spark tester on it.
How ever sparked maybe random... it popped a couple of times on starting fluid, but it should of roared on ST fluid but only popped..
we had 2 fault computers both said could not communicate with vehicle.
We went thru all fuses found nothing blown

He thinks ECM is shot? I kind of lost,,, it is dealership time I think,,,I hate dealerships!!! nothing but a bunch of rip off artists.

other strange thing if towed or on trailer it will start hard and run when at angle, but wont on flat ground long and once it quits it will not start again? WTF!!!
