Default An automobile question

Anyone know where it can be hiding?

I had the stick-shift version, so this could be
different. But, it is on the right side of the
car, close to the engine block, somewhat under the
air cleaner area. It is a little, triangular
yellow ring. If the plastic ring broke off, you'd
need to know exactly where it comes out PLUS a
floodlight, or you'd NEVER find the thing. There
is a total forest of tubes and wires back there.
