The wires used to be attached to something at both ends.
If those ends were labeled when you removed the stuff you don't need from the ends of the wires
You would know where the ends go.
How is this complicated? IF you had labeled them, THEN you would know where they went!
OTOH if these wires are not wires you just cut off something you don't need anymore, then you are also in for a fun time. The wiring diagrams are available at hyundaitechinfo for most models, but for some reason some accent years are just missing. And sometimes they re-used the diagrams (with the color labeling) and just change the colors during production . . . wire color information is possibly untrustworthy, even from Hyundai! There is a kind of test equipment that injects signals you can read with a sensor from a distance, to trace wires in looms, but I couldn't tell you what it is called and they are not going to be giving them away. Best be to be SURE you don't need something is to open up the looms.

The engine was removed ages ago. The old loom was spliced in the past and all the connectors look the same with Hyundais. So it is impossable to say.. This go's to the cam sensor.. or this went to the Mass air flow sensor. once there out thats it! Me and Blue tryed t oget the beta loom fitted which all we needed was pin numbers. I can't see into the future. If you can't help or won't help then please don't comment.

well it would take a while but the schematics on www.hmaservice.com DO denote wire colour...but that changes by year so if you go that route be careful. not sure if thats a viable option or not but hey its something at least.
meh cheers bud. Get northing out of life unless you try, Cars don't scare me weather there 1 wire or 1000. i'v alreaddy traced over 80 just fine.. just got few left.
Also my My CP 82mm Forged pistons come today

Reped.
Used my volt metter to test some of the things and areas and turned up a few.
Im guessing it call all be removed safely without effecting the Lighting and dashboard functions (other then Temp/rev guage i need to wire in from the standalone unit ?
as The new Loom. Controls Fuel Pump, Key, Engine relays and fuel relay ect ect.

You're on the right track. Just be double sure you leave the wires for the stuff in the dash. When it comes right down to it, you could even re-wire the gauge lights & radio etc., but it would be simpler not to!
HotBlue02, there are stray wires everywhere up in there. I imagine pulling the engine harness would only make it MORE of a bowl of spaghetti. The only things done under my dash are an alarm and audio stuff and it already has a bunch of wires out of any sort of loom.

im completely with you Mate.
Pulling the engine loom should of been easyer.
Most all of the Engine sensors went to the ECM.
There are a few left over. (pictured above)
They may be earthed.. Fused or relayed or Hyundai may of routed them a different way in the loom. There is still a decent amount of wiring left on the ECM.
Even tho im remove all the Engine loom. Should o rip out the Full ECM and everything connecting to it.. or does it feed power or anything else to any part of the car. I.E the Key imboilzer. or i will need to remove it / use push button start with the standalone Relay Box.
