What do these wires do?
« on: 28 May 2009, 20:01 »
Hi guys

Trying to find my side indicator wire loom and failing. However I have found quite a few connectors not connected to anything and they dont seem to be drawing any current either. Any ideas what they are (all found infront of the battery)

first is fog lights, second is air temperature, should be stuck in the passenger side wing. third is possibly spotlights, if you have a single headlamp grill.

i think :P

cool thanks I thought one was an air temp sensor. I do have a single light grill so that would make sense. Need to lable the bloody things.

Tomorrows plan is to get the wheel off and arche trim as I hope the wires are in there for the side indicator.

Iirc, the wiring for the side repeaters goes along the rain tray thing. A good way to find it (if the bulb works) is to put the hazards on, then go fishing through the side repeater hole with a bent coat hanger.
