It's been a while since I was there, but I think it may possibly be the ABS light?

Ah yes, I can picture than now.
I didn't think of that though due to it being behind the cluster in the picture.
Nice to see a standard stereo as well!

would you say the yellow plug has been joined in ??
you may need to unwrap a little black tape
the 8 wires should exit from the amp, looks like someone was running a slightly later ford head unit, its all wrong ,,, thats how i see it from here

This is correct you are just missing the speaker plug which connects to the amp. There is a din plug from head unit to amp.
