What's This Connector For

Recommended Posts

miamistu

Hello,

Can anyone here identify what this connector is for? It has two wires coming out: green (wire 57) and brown - the connector is labelled '21'.

well wire 57 is the +12v from the battery to the radiator cooling fan switch located in the rad however it should have a 3 plug connector as the switch should have a high and a low speed out put

 

can you see what the other wire number is?

 

it might be for the cooling ran resistor? but the wire numbers for that should be 58 & 58b

I can't see what the other wire number is, but my cooling fan resistor is already wired up :huh:

I don't l know what its for but I'm sure I have that same connector un-used on my car.

 

Maybe its for the compressor for the air horn on a 1.9 & left spare on a 1.6 (which mine started out as).

that connector is used on the twin fan setup on the 205 td...

when i fitted the fans and 205 td relays ect to my zx they wouldnt work without that being plugged into the fan relay loom.

Nice one chaps, i'll just cable-tie it out of the way then. Strange that they bothered wiring it in in the first place though :angry:

Guess they have a generic loom for all cars and just install it regardless of spec.

 

Remember converting that old Volvo from carb to injection and finding all the wires were already there on the loom waiting to be used.

I'll second that; when i fitted an xs dash loom, to save a lot of hassle fitting gti instruments, it plugged straight into the fuse box and worked without a hitch (for once!).
