Anyone Know What These Wires Are For?

Post by Pabby1980 » Wed Jun 16, 2021 4:25 pm

Hi all,

I've just done a EPS fix by removing the power steering motor and ECU which I'll do a write up on soon but in the meantime I've got the fear because I can't remember/work out what these wires are for.

They're next to the wire for the footweell light, and also attached to the brake light switch above the brake pedal.

Really want to go for a drive but kinda panicking a bit.

Help much appreciated.

Paul

Ah, OK, well that doesn't sound like it's going to kill me at least!

Thinking about it I've never had a sounder or a gong in my car so perhaps it's been removed?

Where would it be located mate, and what it looks like?

Thanks loads, really appreciate the reply.

After a search on the gong speaker found this thread, seems like two of the wires are for the gong speaker (which I think has been removed in my car before I bought it) and the other is for parking sensor module which I don't have.

If someone more knowledgeable could confirm that would be great.

Many thanks.

Paul.
