Default Anyone know where these loom plugs are for?

As above anyone know where these plugs go/what they are for?

These wires that go to a connector on the alternater, these are on the main loom.



And these as all by the steering column.



Yellow connection/plug.



Black connection/plug in middle of the picture.



Cheers

Matt, top pic. blue thin wire is alternator tell tale I think. Has the same connector on the end at cvh engine temp sensor i.e. just a insulated female bullet.
The thicker wire usually has a ring connector on and is the alternator feed which you 10 or 13mm nut on to the alternator. On mine it does anyway.

Can't help with the dash plugs.

ok iirc
grey plug is where heated front screen loom plugs in
yellow is where the stereo loom plugs in



think this is either where the horn plugs in or the fuel comp loom but (iirc fuel comp loom has 4 wires)



plugs in together with the other black plug at top of pick


hope this helps
