    I was under my 2011 DCSB this last weekend changing the differential and transfer case oil and I saw this severed wire. Is this a ground wire? Something I should fix? Haven't noticed any change in performance or any codes. Hard to see in the second picture but it is on the side of the oil pan and above it to the left side in the pic.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Believe that is the grounding strap for the transmission.

    I'm thinking that it can be replaced with some terminals and a 10 gauge wire.

    Blackdemon thank you! A quick google of "2011 tundra transmission ground wire" brought me back to a thread on this forum. I just didn't know what to search for. I'll get a new one in order and fix it this weekend.
