where does this wire go (pics)
hi all, just wondering where this wire goes as you see in the pic its the one beside my thumb the other wires in the pic go to the ciggie lighter, this wire is running off the small loom along with the ciggie lighter wires, and has a very small connector head.
the wire is grey in colour and i cant remember where it goes any help would be a great help.

Good luck mate..............
I posted this up about 3 years ago! When I first got my Escort!
Still have no idea what it is, I thought it MAY have something to do with the vecta alarm fitted as standard

grey with a yellow tracer are usually for interiour lighting, whether it be switches or the dash itself, power the lights up then check for power.
just looked at the pic again and actually that is for the light on the ciggy lighter surround is the bulb and holder on the outside of the barrel?

Ive got an exact stray wire and connector!
My ciggy is all conected up and the barrel is lit, yet i still have this stray
My bet its something to do with the vecta, so i taped it up and left it.

It isn't for the ash tray illumination is it? Can't remember if my Escos has this without checking - but the Sierra definately did and that was a grey and yellow wire seperate from the cigarette lighter.

WHY YOU NO WRISSEN!
I thought it was something to do with the lighter surround but thats all working fine - that picture looks lower because he's pulled it out to take the picture, otherwise it would be mounted up near the centre vents!

Its defo part of interior illumination. I use to use that coloured wire to wire in the illumination for car stereos etc so the lights on them would dip when i turned headlights on .
My money is on Cig lighter illumination also

i have a stray wire just like this as well if i remember correctly when i took out my centre console out of my ST esc cos(so no VECTA) AND ALL the lights work on the ciggy lighter/dash etc etc!!...its also the same colour AS the ciggy lighter light feed,so i was thinking its an extra feed for some extra you may want to fit later on,or maybe even a feed for the heated seat switch lights(thats if they light up?).......

Found my picture.................PLEASE NOTE - This is nowhere near the fucking ashtray!
I still beleive its something to do with the Vecta alarm, as I volt tested it as I assumed it was also for illumination but no current when lights were switched on!
