the black one looks like it could be for the horn or maybe the marker lights,test some stuff and see what is not working. not sure about the white one though

i got the front end of my car all apart right now i will go see if i can find that white plug. where does it lead from?

The first one is the side marker light connector, it's busted up some.


The second one is......give me the exact wire colors attached to it.

stay tuned

2 unknown cables AND weird 1000 rpm idle (last post)

back with pics and another problem

first, the white cable connector:

the cable has 2 wires, the colours are:
1. black/white
2. red/blue

and here's another picture from where it leads: (sorry for the bad quality)





and my next problem.
i started the car with no problem as usual and drove it to the garage (max 50 meter/160 feet).
i fitted the frontbumper+ headlightcovers and i started it again to call it a day.
but when i start the car it runs max 1000 rpm idle. there is continuous flowing air out of the BOV and the airfilters are sucking in air like a madman.


KLIK i have made a video to be more clear about this problem. the gauge you see in the video is the boost gauge. KLIK

thnx again!

The first one has to be either the marker light OR parking light in the turn signal.


The white connector is not showing up anywhere. YOU need to do some better research on where it goes and some better camera work if you are really into this and want to solve it.
