Talking SOLVED - Mystery Wires

Hello All,

Trying to find a part number for number 6 on the diagram. Cant find any pointers, trying to locate where the circled cable goes to. Car is a 2013 335i F30 RWD

Thank You

UPDATE-

After some thorough research. Came across this from an old DIY video. Ground wire was behind block, and wiring was called an Engine Trans Module Harness.

Cannot 100% confirm but that looks like a ground wire with a lug. Maybe bonds ground to the transmission?

I've never seen the n55 in person but it looks like that is probably on the back of the engine block. Right on the corner of cylinder 6. Really easy to get to. The b58 has two grounds back there

That’s what i’m thinking, but then the rest of the wires look like they’re in the exact place they should be on the diagram, for example 3 and 2 are sitting on/to the side of the valve cover

12517602819 is a part number off a X5 35i looks like number 6. Called an Engine Trans Module wiring harness, now with this I need to locate that ground!

That is the engine ground. It bolts to the rear of the cylinder head, towards the driver side with an M8 bolt. It is the ONLY ground for the engine and transmission. It is incorporated into the engine harness.
