What was this plug for ?

Whilst doing the myriad jobs on my disco I've come across this plug which has melted against the fbh exhaust. What is it and should I be worried that something is now not working ?

Nope. Washer bottle plug still on. I'm guessing it done it a while ago. Iid faults cleared the other week and nothing coming back up then. I cant check anything at the min because I've literally got the car in bits trying to do the cross over pipe. The trouble is I just keep finding more wrong. Big Cry

from what I can make out, looks like it was unused ... top end is the other half of the 2 part connector and has the bit that is meant to hold it out of the way of the FBH exhaust.

Fogs ? assuming you don't have them.

It's behind/below the headlight on the passenger side. I had a feeling it might be an unused plug. Got fog lights and front pdc fitted. It's a hse spec. I believe the fog/pdc harness is driver side also. Maybe a lhd feature ?

Ah. Thank you guys. So I can stop worrying about that now and get back to worrying about everything else !

Edit: just noticed the one on the drivers side.
