Can someone ID this wire harness?

I just purchased a 2000 Maxima GXE with 177,500 km on it. I am getting horrible (around 12 mpg) fuel economy. I just noticed this wire (I'm assuming some type of sensor) harness o
is disconnected. Not sure if that would have to do with the car having a remote starter in it, or not? Here's the pic. Thanks in advance
Sorry for the blurry picture. Shaky hands :S

That is for the front motor mount. Cars with automatic trans have electrically operated front and rear hydraulic motor mounts. The motor mounts sometimes short out and cause the ECU to burn up, so some people have unplugged them to save the ECU.
