Not connected cable

This is back of petroleum filter, now I saw that it is not connected.
It is not the upper one that warms the diesel but the other one more down.
Does anyone know what that one does?
It is very difficult to connect it, I cannot do it.

thanks

Maybe that is connected to the sensor of the diesel filter (if there is one) which detects water ?

It is possible that (for YOUR car) it does not connect to anything. It is not unusual for there to be wiring looms with connectors for optional items that have not been fitted to a specific car. For example, on my C5 VTR it did not have an automatic dimming rear view mirror as standard, but the wiring was in place for it (so I was able to purchase one from a scrap yard and fit it successfully).

I have your VIN and that is indeed the plug for the 'water in Diesel' detection - and you don't have one of these fitted on your vehicle, so ignore it.
