What color wires are associated with this plug?

Is there a reason you've turned your AFM sideways? That can have an effect on the flapper door.

Sort of looks like a connector for the front signal lights.
..and turn your afm so the door opens like a door.(needs to be flat).

The front signal lights have a flat 3 wire plug i think. Maybe thats the side marker plug? I have that same plug just hanging around in my bay not plugged into anything and i dont have side markers so i guess thats what its for? Overall i know its not engine related. And yes, please level out your afm. It shouldnt be sideways like shown in your picture.

The reason I ask about the wire colors is because the plug may just be for the front windshield washer motor. (Not to be confused with the windshield wiper motor near the firewall.)

You're right. It's the washer pump. Two pins are for the pump and two are for the signal light for the empty water tank in the idiot light panel.

I'll 3rd that. The washer pump/level sensor connect to that plug. I just used the tank and sensor to finish my AI setup.

To all, thank you very much! I can sleep better at night. And I turned my AFM. Again, thank you for the info. I just finished a completed tear down and rebuild and about to turn the key. Forgot I removed the W-washer to install the FMIC.
