Arrow O4 E320 outside temp probe. Wiring harness missing

The title pretty much says it all. I have an O4 E320 that was involved in a front-end collision. I recently purchased an outside ambient temperature probe.....and when I went to replace it, I discovered that the wiring harness is gone.........(I know where the probe is located, but it has NO wires hooked to it). I've searched high-n-low, with no luck..........and this morning I was replacing the drivers side headlight, so I had a clear view of all the wires. I found NO wiring harness, no cut wires, nothing unplugged..............can someone PLEASE point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance

It's very hard to say where the harness is.. most likely it is down th.ere somewhere. usually when they are un plug you will get a check engine light.. take it back to the body shop and have them do the job correctly

Taking it back to the body shop isn't an option. I bought the car second hand knowing that it had been in an accident.
The strange part is that they actually did a good job on the parts and repainting the entire car.
Then they turn around and reuse the headlight assembly with all three mounting brackets broken (repaired with metal strips, rivets, and JB Weld) and leave the temp probe missing/disconnected.
