Mystery Wiring

Post by knapmann »

Does anyone know what this wiring is for? I have no spare female plugs on my car that this could go into... Im curious more than anything, only three pins/wires

I can only think its off another car, as all my plugs are used,, do you think it could be to do with rear heated window, electric windows or sunroof...? something targa related maybe?

It has a grommet on the cable so it’s likely to have gone through a hole in a panel.
Any markings on the other side of the plug?

no, nothing. At the moment im inclined to think its for an electric window maybe, its about 80cm long so its not a short cable...

It’s the same wire colours as the rear demister on later cars.
