Default 2003 996 3.6 pictures ground location on cyl heads

getting down to the last few steps before engine installation after complete rebuild.

I have 2 wire harness grounds, left front cyl head , and right rear cyl head.

No t sure the correct location/orientation of these ground terminal ends.

Anyone have a picture of an engine out with harness still installed?

Thanks

There should be only one ground strap connected to the bank 2 head where the cam timing tool screws onto.

I think that he meant the engine wire harness. Not sure if I remember right, but 3.4l engine harness had some sensor grounds in it.

You're right. Photo of the drivers side harness ground. Don't think I have one for the passenger side though.

Passenger side. You can barely see the ground connection at the upper left corner of the pic.

Excellent picture I see then it goes under an electrical connector bracket by the air oil separator comma diagonally on the other side of the engine there's another connector but I think it's closer to the intake manifold close to the head I didn't see it on the second picture it's a similar ground termination do you have a better picture?

These are from a 2005 3.6L.










I have more. Let me know if you need to see a specific area.
