Looks like you have a VG so the only shielded wire on that side is for the knock sensor. May want to double-check to see if you have a knock sensor code.

Knock sensor code doesn't light up the CEL.

Not that easy to get to... Under the rear exhaust manifold behind the power steering pump.

It's a one wire sensor. The harness should have two wires, the other being for the shield to ground.

The power steering pressure sensor is two wire, but it's not that close to what the pic shows.
