Hi guys...New XJ jeep owner from Australia, great site..cheers...ok...here's the problem. I had an issue with an aftermarket hands free kit fitted in an under console, and this was obviously fitted years b4 i purchased it as it was for an old ericson phone. anyway...apon remove this mess and tangle of poor fitted wiring that looked like a handfull of aldente sphagetti thrown from a distance, under the dash ( minus meatballs ). Once succesfully removed...i found an extra wiring loom that fell out of the front of the console, which led up under the dash to the firewall...with a large 10 pin flat plug....ok...panic time..." uh oh..were the hell did this come from..!!!!" spent hours trying to find its mate...to no sucsess. Now to let you understand the fear factor here...the heater blower was paying up at around the same time...as in the directional blow from up to front to vent....( later to find the vac pipe popped off....phew )...Still seriously scratching my head..i asked around to find that i got answers from the trans inhibitor, to the seat funtion loom...But No...everything was working....Went to a Jeep wrecker, he didnt know either so we proceeded to pull the console out of a wreck, becouse you can see the loom come from under the dash, and disappear into the front of the console....AHA...thats the one i said ...Triumfant at last ( spelling wrong i know)...we ripped that console out to see its purpose, mate or joined companion.....But....Nothing...it was NOT CONNECTED TO ANYTHING..!!!! just tucked away like a an afterthought from the designers who looked at each other and said..." um...dunno...just tuck it under there and ...um....Shhh ".
To My Dilema...WHAT IS THIS Plug for..??? anyone..?? There must be a purpose for it...I have looked at every jeep pic i can get my hands on...But nothing to even say its for an accsessory from jeep as an option...Anyone...? it sits ....waiting for something...Help me put this crazy little plug to a purpose.. Cheers ...Dan from Downunder:wierd:
