Last pic...broken end....wire is copper core and green covering...it stretches almost to the radiator for the A/C compressor fan shroud
Thank you in advance if anybody can ID this broken wire for me and tell me where it goes so I can fix it and re-install it where it belongs. Bill Carroll Las Vegas, NM scom792@centurylink.net

That looks like an aftermarket add on. Say, a remote starter or ambient temp sensor or fog lights. What if any aftermarket addons do you have on the pickup?
No aftermarket add-ons at all except a trailer hitch brake and those wires all go to the back of the truck...already checked those.
Have not been able to locate the wire coming into the passenger compartment under dash....yet....sorry. I don't have truck till later today.....wife borrowed it.
