Under the hood of E350 - is this normal??
Can someone please take a peek under their hood and see if this is normal - on the driver side over to the far right of the engine compartment when looking at engine. See that little module with the blue and orange wires coming out of it. Is that normal? Shouldn't wires be protected from the elements with a cap or something!?!? Thanks!

Yup have the same wires. I didn't have a chance to inspect where they were going but usually has to do with the alternator. Rest easy, all E350's should be the same way.
