What is this plug by the gearbox of my Puma??

[sashadidi]

Hi, I was looking under my 2008 Puma by the gearbox and noticed this plug hanging loose by the gearbox and I have no idea where it has fallen down from.
Plug has both a metal clip and plastic "plug" attached to it. any help appreciated

The metal clip should clip onto one of the ally molding parts on the outside of the trans case, it is the wiring loom and plug for the crank angle sensor.

Well I will ask!! what is a crank angle sensor..

you didn't notice the 'missing' gearbox mount :wasntme:

Crank Angle Sensor = one part you must carry in you spare parts box, if it fails (uncommon) the show stops .
