What's this plug...
« on: 22 July 2009, 17:00 »


I found it down by the intercooler, and comes off the loom down by the headlight and washer bottle. Couldn't see where it came from  :huh:


Thanks

Dunno, but have you been chewing it?   :grin:

Could be for something your motor aint got fitted, perhaps a connector for headlight washers over in that area?

Is it not for the high beam/aux lamps?

It's not the brake pad wear sensor is it? That may explain when it appears to have been sanded flat at one side?

By the way it's not throwing any codes. So i'm doubting it's the brake pad sensor. Could be for something I havent got..I'm pretty sure it's not for the lamp as they're all working fine (I think)

Isn't there a plug that goes into the back of the prong bit, though? :undecided:

Its probably the plug that tells the headlight washers (if fitted) that the headlights are on and that they need to spray....

EDIT... Just seen reply No2, I am with him!!  :lipsrsealed:
