Calling 95 FD owners, question about connector

I recently bought a 95 touring front harness for use on my 94 touring. I compared the two because years ago I bought a 94 touring front harness and even that one was a bit different. The only differences I found at first were in the blue connector that plugs into the body connector that goes back to the ABS computer, and I don't have ABS anymore, so no big deal. So I started putting the harness into the car and noticed another one. There's a small spade connector near the fan relays that I don't have on my 94 harness. I spoke with someone in NY and he said he'd check but he doesn't think anything is plugged into it, which would be phenomenal. I'm waiting to install the passenger side of the harness until I get this figured out. It's blue with a green stripe. Any help would be appreciated.

1995 has a different ABS system than 93-94, 1995 has six solenoids compared to 3 in the earlier ABS system. I recently encountered the same thing with the Japanese diagrams too, July 1994 is when it was introduced. On the Japanese diagram, there is a Blue/Green wire in the system, it's the Ignition-switched power feed from the Rear Wiper fuse. But it goes directly to the ABS Control Unit connector, Pin A, not a single-pin connector like this. Pretty sure the North American 1995 one is the same. Only problem sis that the ABS Control Unit is nowhere near the area in question.

Just so we're all on the same page, this is in the ABS Harness and close to the Battery, correct?

The fan recall harness was built into the 95's. That's most likely the fan test connector.

Just leave it be, you are good there.

Well, this is the harness that wraps around the engine bay. So, close to where the battery sits stock, yes. ABS harness, no.

I thought I was going to have to swap over those few wires, but i got lucky I guess lol.

Thanks!

I did notice that the extra harness for the fans that mine had wasn't on this.

That's great news. Thanks Dale!
