Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

hi,
just wondering what does the connector in the pic below plug into?, I can't seem to see, too many beers and a few days since I started!
(picture taken from rear, where airbox normally sits, looking down towards right rear light)
left is MAF connector
Right ????
Hi Richard,
No not for the 02 thats already plugged in, I'm thinking maybe it's spare for the spoiler, it's got a fixed wing so maybe not needed
cheers
brumbrum
I was thinking Lambda but then the plugs look slightly different, I'd say they both relate to the spoiler and would normally connect up behind the OSR light.
I know the Lambda wires are 2 White, 1 Black & 1 Grey if that helps.
Hi Richard,
The engine compartment fan and light appear to be on different wiring, already routed in place, I've had a good look at cant see where it would plug in to be honest so I'm working with it being spare. I'll check everything when the car is back together mid week!
cheers
If you have a fixed spoiler it is possibly the wiring for the third brake light
you no longer have on the deck lid . It would have been replaced with the Porsche blank plate. see photo

How many pins on the connector? If it is 8, and you have park assist, it might be for the sensors and number plate lights. Electric lid release, perhaps? :dont know:
If you ever find out, for God's sake let us know! :x
Evening chaps,
the mystery continues!
no park assist on car
no blanking plate - car has led brake light
connector has 3 wires going into it, it looks porsche oem, although it's stamped bmw with a number.. :nooo:
EDIT: boot release is cable
pic below:
Is that a 6-pin connector?
Is the wire to pin 1 orange and red?
Is the wire to pin 2 brown?
Is the wire to pin 6 violet and green?
If so, I think I know what it is........
