Well, if the OXS is truly missing, yah.
But since the coupes and 4kq's share a harness, you will find the
*heater* wires for the OXS bundled up on the coupe, and zip tied sorta
backwards in place. The OXS signal wire has a light tan single pin
connector thing - is that the one that is disconnected?
Also, there is a two pin connector, whitish, that is the ISV duty cycle
measurement tap. Not supposed to be connected.
I suspect your "plug" might be the remnants of the CO sample tube
attachment. Examine your EM more closely and report...
