Mysterious connection (E120, 4ZZ-FE)


Executive
 Share

Recommended Posts

Hi all, I've come across this odd connector that leads to nowhere in my engine bay. What is it's purpose? I've seen it in plenty of other similiar spec E12's with a 3ZZ/4ZZ, and I can't seem to figure out where it goes.
Many thanks

I cant really make it out,

But it looks like its located where the bonnet alarm button is,from what I can see there is no switch so could be just the connector for the button

The pics are way too small, its something gearbox related, the bonnet switch (If fitted) is it the same area

I think it is the same area,

I seem to have aftermarket alarm fitted and pictures of switch I have seen is mounted to a bracket above connection shown,I think mine was removed to fit the alarm box to this bracket,seen the location on this forum,they where talking about bonnet raisers

It seems to lead inside to the cabin, and doesn't affect the car at all in any way which leads me to believe it's some sort of optional extra that isn't mounted (i.e. bonnet switch, it could be anything tbh)
It's a saloon so its unlikely to have the same level of equipment as a hatch T3 would ofc too

Upon some further probing, this is indeed the bonnet switch cable, but its tucked far too far away to be able to connect to the location on the slam panel it would hook up to
