Anyone know what these wires are for?

I picked up my Cobalt today and before when I looked at it the lady told me there was some exposed wires that a dealer looked at and said it would need to be fixed soon. Whenever you touch them, or something hits them the car bogs down and loses power. I dont know what theyre for.. The wire cover or whatever its called is right next to them, if I cover them with that and maybe wrap it with eletrical tape do you think that'll work? Thanks

Not sure what model you have. Maybe maf if its lsj or map sensor wires. those would be my 2 guesses being it looks to be a 5 wire.

Looks like they're to the injector harness, but like others have said, the pic is pretty tough to make everything out.

Are you throwing any codes? I would think that if it was to the injector harness it would throw some sort of code. If it is indeed unattached to the plug I would use heat shrink tubing rather than electrical tape
