maxima experts step inside

ok i am a little confused. i have a 2000 maxima se fed emmisions. i have located the wires for the rear 02 sensor to tap into for the o2 simulator. unfortunately i could not find them under the hood but rather under the car by the catalitic converter.as the picture shows. as the picture shows i have one blue one white and two black. according to the instructions i am only suppose to have one wire under here reading 14 volts but i have two. both are black 1st question which of those hot wires do i tap into. secondly i realy wanted to hook the 02 simulator up under the hood but as this picture shows the wire dissapears into the chasis and i have no idea where it comes out up top. i have checked these two connectors on the rail on the following picture the first one plugs into a conector on the transmission and the second one with the blue wire connects to the primaries. so the major questions are this why do i have two wires reading 14 volts at the rear 02 sensor and because both are black which one do i use as current for the 02 simulator, secondly do i have to hook the 02 simulator up under the car by the cat or does somebody hear actually know where the harness comes out under the hood for me to tap into. it is neither of the two connectors in the picture on the rail in front of the radiator thanks for any help. posted pictures so you guys could visualize.

Locate the O2 sensor under your hood with the white shroud, its not on one of those clips where it should be, so remove your engine cover to see where the harness is going to:
