Impact sensor wires

Question about wires to the left front impact sensor. The two wires going to the left front impact sensor got cut and the are both the same color with no markings to know which one goes with which. They were also twisted together so you cannot tell which one went to which. Can I splice them back together? Anybody know where they go or have a wiring diagram for this?

What the heck is an impact sensor? Have you checked the wiring diagram?

Air bag sensor. It's behind the front bumper on the drivers side. There is a plug that goes to it with two identical wires and the wires got cut and I want to know if it matters which one gets spliced to which?

Chances are, the system is an open switch that closes and shorts the wires together on impact. If that is the case, it doesn't matter which wire goes where.

You should check the wiring diagram and report back.
