I knocked the main power wire in the trunk off while installing a wiper assembly. I want to make sure I connect it back in the correct place. This looks like where it might go. I am bad with electrics, so I am asking the experts.

Yeah, I saw that. I also said I suck at electrical. I got to where I needed to be. That was the connector.

That looks like Terminal 30 (unfused, main power) to me.

It was. I had to take a few pictures to get the clarity to read those numbers, but it was 30 that was open. Thanks Smile
