Title: Whats this for
Post by: Colin 009 on February 16, 2005, 20:33:31

Hi All,

I was drying out my drivers side carpet and foam bits yesterday  :?

I spotted a female plug sticking out from under the fuse box door or was it above it :-k

Anyway can someone tell me what this plug is for. :?:

While fiddling about under the bonnet I also found two plugs with nowhere to go, one was next to the washer bottle and the other was just behind the airbox, next to the wing.

I'm sure this one is for 'Test-Book' or it's equivilant.
Well it's roughly where the chappie plugged it in to persuade mine to accept a new alarm fob

The motor manufacturers usually buy the wiring loom's in - it's a lot cheaper to have 'one loom to fit all' models than half a dozen different ones for the different models - finish everything in a plug connector so if the model doesn't have that bit of kit you don't plug anything into it and end up with plugs hanging about the car all over the place  :wink:

If my camera was working  :cry:  #-o
 makes sense to have a complete loom fitted,
maybe I'll have a look for the heated windscreen plugs and then find a brick :lol:

your Disco will still have testbook, the plu by the washer bottle do you have headlamp washers if not it may be the plug for that pump.
