Spare wiring plugs? What are they for??

When i was fitting my A bar i noticed near the o/s headlight with the bumper removed two spare wiring connectors doing nowt. I am in the process of fitting some spots to the bar and wondered if either could be a feed for the spots or if not what the devil they were for? Maybe one could be for front pdc as i dont have that but i have fogs and washers. Any ideas? Corrado Vr6

I wonder are they the plugs for the fog lights? Have you fog lights fitted? A happy childhood ... is the worst possible preparation for life.

Yep have fogs already, so know it aint that, doubt its the spots wiring as i think a harness comes with the genuine lr spotlights. Corrado Vr6

Have you tried putting a meter over the terminals and playing with some swithces to see if you get any current on particular circuits?

One will be the front PDC, are you sure the other isn't where you unplugged the front fogs from? if it's only a two pin connector then its for the TPMS

OOh now i wish i had that, seems neither of these will do for my spots then, think i may tap into the headlight feed to run my relay as the factory fit harness and switch looks like a load of hassle. cheers for the help guys Corrado Vr6

are they large plugs attached to a bracket rather than loose, just under where the O/S head light would go. If so they i would say definatly the PDC and Fogs. if you have the bumper off then you should have two corresponding plugs to attach them to Wink Duncan
