Either your looking at the wrong part or you have a broken wire to your MAP sensor MAPs have three wires. PWR(5 volts ), ground, and Return Signal ( .8-4.5 volts )

Well its a replacement engine from another 2000 neon just 4 months difference in date. And i have ran the wires down , but nothing is missing. It's the only plug that is unhooked and it only reaches where the map goes. I am taking it by the dealer and if they cant figure it out its off to the scrapper.. I have pics of everything....

With out better pictures and color of wires my guess would be an intake air temperature sensor Good Luck

MAP sensors are a 3 wire sensor 5V reference, ground, and one to the PCM or ECM which ever the vehicle has. all MAP sensors have atleast 3 wires (unless after market) the plug you showed in the first picture looks to be a plug for some thing like the cooling fans, coolant temp sensor, or some thing like that but its deffinitly not for the MAP

I've got a 1993 GMC truck with a 350 engine and it has a two wire map plug as well. And I can't find a map sensor like it anywhere.
