I know this is a lot, but if you could just tell me what one of these plugs does it would really help!

Sorry for the dodgy iphone pics!

Pic#1 (4 pin (3+1) looks like lambda sensor

pic#2 (4 pin) looks like temp sensor on top of oil filter housing (black/yellow strip

pic#3 or#7 is the rad fan wiring ?

pic#4 looks familiar

pic#9 starter motor wiring/gearbox area ? especially if one is blue

pic#10 is radfan control unit iirc


ill try and get some pics tomorrow of a few area's , with that many unplugged you should have a few holes to fill up no ?

pic #3 = rad wiring for fan (oval = AC, other = non-AC)
#7 = oval AC fan connector (see above)

#4 = headlight connector

#9 = looks familar, i think it might be on the thottle body, does it have like a bobble on it?

i hate it, cos they all look familar

just one question, how have you got a switch for an AC fan, and non-AC fan? as i require this (as i just got a twin fan with that connector)

This is the thing there arnt many empty connections! If i know which ones are for air con and abs that'll loose a few unknowns.

Photos would be a great help tho if you dont mind, would really appreciate it!

so the big oval 4 pin is for the rad fan and the big oval 7 pin is for aircon rad fan?

Not sure how ive got both to be honest, its a abf loom from a cordoba sx if thats any help?

Ok, the ones I really need to know are -

Passenger side, near the washer tank position – Unsure which one is for washer tank?! and what is the other one for?!

2 pin, brown/green, brown/blue
2 pin, green/white, brown


Long wire near passenger headlamp,
2 pin, white/yellow, brown


Big 2 pin with blue connectors, (one on each side) black/yellow, brown/black

which connector is for the horn?

also, there is a springed switch which i guess is an alarm sensor for the bonnet? do i need this connected as I dont have an alarm?

Thanks, Kyle

Another question, the fan wiring has 4 wires -

Red/black, red/white, red/yellow, brown

but I'm using a slim line fan that only has a positive and negative, so would I join the three red wires together and connect to the positive then the brown to the negative?

I thought that there should only be three wires? A negative and fast and slow speed wires, so what's the other for?
