I'm not sure, but I think they plug into the manifolds on top of the cats you can see 2 small holes whare they should go. I'm no mechanic so I could be wrong!! lets hope someone else comes along that knows better.

Hope you get your problem solved ASAP

Probably not the problem, but it might be worth checking the engine ground strap and cleaning the mounting points as it costs nothing. You can get at through the drivers side front wheel arch. There are a couple of posts about it in the archive as I think Bryan (TUS 373) had some problems with his. What's your voltage reading on the dash?
