Can ya'll help me determine what wire this is and where it goes?



Thanks

 

Black with a white strip indicates its a power wire i.e. 12v on it when the key is to ON. Sorry but I looked at two cars and neither had that single wire connector. This is up front near the relays in front left of the car, right? I can't imagine a single wire connector that has just power going to it. It looks factory though. I only have series four cars so maybe its a series five thing. Lot of words to say I don't know.

 

maybe for the ac? you're right its swtiched 12v, the white one does the emissions and some other stuff

 

Its an 88TII if that helps...it goes into the harness below in the pic and looks old and factory like...All I can say is I'm stumped on this one! But what on the A/C; I don't know of anything that it can goe to.

 

You got a point. The a/c has a single wire connector that goes to it. I just looked. YES INDEED! It is for the airconditioner. I'd a swore the a/c wire was pure black. Nope. Black/white.

 

cool beans

 

are we talkin about the wire that kicks the compressor clutch on and off?

 

Yes indeedy. It's the wire that kicks the compressor on and off. That wire should be making it way back to the airconditioning relay. Anyway, the airconditioner has a single wire on it with a connector that should mate to that one in your picture. It is a little strange that it's in your hand up front like that. It should be running down low and headed towards the compressor. What's connected to your compressor right now????

EDIT: Maybe what I wrote is confusing. That wire should be ORIGINATING at the ac relay and going to the compressors connector, which is also a single wire connector.

 

"Cool Beans"....

Thanks ya'll....
