Engine wiring harnesses consolidate multiple individual wires into a single, organized assembly for efficient electrical distribution within the engine compartment. These harnesses connect engine sensors, actuators, and control modules – including the ECU and fuel injection system – facilitating communication and power delivery. Construction utilizes high-temperature, oil & abrasion-resistant insulation and sealed connectors to withstand harsh under-hood environments. Harnesses are vehicle-specific, accounting for engine size, features, and mounting locations. Modern designs often incorporate overmolding and discrete wire shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference and ensure signal integrity.
