Help identify this wire?!?

I just purchased a 2004 F250 crew cab 6.0l turbo diesel. It is my first diesel and first F250. I was looking over the cab the other day and removed the fuse panel cover. Found a wire that had been cut and taped. Had theses markings on it
015-082-060
W14942

I followed the wire and it goes through the firewall and connects to the exaust.

Anyone have any idea what this goes to? Tuner maybe?
Thanks for any help.
Greg

I did a google search and this came up

Epinions.com - Search Results: bully
... gt diesel bully dog watchdog reviews 7.3 powerstroke performance altima 2008 performance chip bully dog programers dodge cummins banks egt 015 082 060 ...
http://www.epinions.com/t.../show_al...Bgmc%2Bmodels?...

Maybe an Exhaust Gas Temp probe (pyrometer) that hooks up to a bully dog monitoring display.

Hope this helps

Thanks Again

That's what it is, did a search and found the samething. Guy probably had that and some pillar gauges. I agree, would of been nice if they were left in there...

Also makes u wonder if he was beatin' the thing, when that stuff is usually put in and then removed, means he may of ran it hard and put it away wet a few times..

Hopefully it was not, the truck looks to be in great shape. It is an 04 with 79,000 miles. I hope with that mileage I want have too many problems out of it. First time with diesel, so I opted for the extended warranty.

Thanks,
