    Bumper cover crumpled in sending wheel liner under tire. As it ripped out it triggered two OBD codes:

    C0205
    P1578

    I have a wire dangling that went to something. It's not the wheel speed sensor wire. That's still there but I suspect a break under the conduit. This may have gone to some module that was popped into the body. Door buzzer? Yaw sensor? Anybody know what it was?

    wild guessing (and that's all it is so far) could be a front light plug?
    What location is the wire dangling? In front of the tire?

    edit: this link might help in understanding what could've caused the code to set.

    The dangling wire and plug may not be involved with the codes.

    It turned out to be a missing door buzzer and the wire to the wheel speed sensor was ripped. Sounded the wire back together. Don't really care about the door buzzer and it's not throwing any code for it I just don't hear the car beep when I lock and unlock it anymore
