What is this connector??

Whilst I was refitting my lights yeaterday I noticed this connector is not attached to anything and can't actually see anything it should attach to either. It is on the same loom as the headlights but dangles down much further and is secured to the body underneath the air filter box on the drivers side.

 

I have always had a light on the dash to say there is a bulb out, but they are all working fine. Could this have anything to do with it? There is nothing similar on the passenger side of the car either.

Help would be appreciated.;)

If the light is fitted you can't see it. It's a big thing to have not connected to something. If I look through the air intake ie where the indicators are you can see it dangling down.

 

I am not overly worried but it is in the direct path of any water that comes through the gap!!:blink:

Thanks for the help guys. I just thought it was a bit weird having it dangling there and taking the full brunt of any water that goes through the gaps in the bumper.

 

To be honest, if I hadn't taken the lights out Iwould never have noticed it!:rolleyes:

Havard, if your car is a 93-96 and has the 97-98 tail lights you are going to have the dummy light turned on whenever you turn your lights on. if this is the problem i'm sure the light on the dash is off when all of your lights are off.

No mate. The yellow (bulb out) light is on all the time and never goes off. The guy I bought it off reckoned it was something to do with some neons that were fitted in Japan and had been subsequently removed.

 

I'll get it looked at eventually but it's not a big problem, I just put two and two together and 2538 as usual!!:innocent:
