Wish I'd taken more photos when I took my dash out but I didn't, and now I'm completely baffled about the purpose/destination for a few mystery wires around the steering column. Much obliged if anyone can ID them. I haven't found them in harness photos or the wiring diagram. This is a 93 touring.
1 - White connector with Blue, Red, Green on left side of steering column. Wires run to the back of the ignition. I have no idea what this is supposed to connect to, though I've seen photos of it connected to something.
2 - White wire with bullet connector, white wire runs back to the ignition switch.
3 - Little white connector on right side of steering column. Black wire which I would assume runs to ground.
4 - Ground wire with ring connector hanging out just behind the steering wheel. I this this might be the other end of #3?
1 & 2 look like a portion of an old turbo timer harness. I'm not sure about 3 & 4, that could have been something installed for a horn button with an aftermarket hub/steering wheel.
Just in case anyone stumbles upon this thread while trying to remove a turbo timer harness while wondering how to get those darned connectors loose this is how it's done:
...the two connectors have the standard push-together-and-click type mechanism, with the notable exception that there's a red tab which may then be used to make sure that the 'click' mechanism doesn't accidentally disengage. If found it easier to push on where the the small 'rails' on the red tab protrude from the connector, then the tab itself...
