2 Wire Plugs. What do they do?

In a Series IV N/A, their are 2 6 hole white wire plugs. For each of them they have 4 wires feed to them.

One Is located at the Boost sensor, towards the passenger side.

The other, Is located on the side of the Driver shock tower, behind the Main Fuse Box.

I have been meaning to ask this for awhile know.

Actually, the atospheric pressure sensor is inside the car, behind the passengers kick panel. The manifold pressure sensor is on the RHS shock tower of both NA and Turbo.

So they are for the Automatic Adjustable Suspension? They are In front of both shock towers.

My FC Is a GXL. If It Is a GXL, perhaps the previous owner took out the actuators off the top off the shocks.

Can anyone confirm, for sure, If these plugs are Infact related to the A.A.S?

The plugs are most likely there hidden away on all models. Its easier to make a single harness for all cars rather than making five or six different harness. You'll find extra plugs all over the car that are unused. Such as for electric mirrors if you don't have those. The plug is just stuffed away. Same with cruise control.

I'm Inclined to believe that they are for the A.A.S.

Thats great b'c I can use them for the RPM Switch, Instead of the battery (non Ignition switched) and the other one can be used, Instead of my Diagnostic plug (Ignition swiched, again) that I am currently using for my electric fan (I have always felt uncomfortable about this one). I'm sure NZCovertible will be exstatic about this one!

Thanks guys
