Default Unknown Connection...
Anyone know what this connection might be for....I was told that it might be the outside temp sensor connection, but I have manual air not electronic.....so it wouldn't be prewired for that would it....can't find the connection in the helms manual either.




Heres one to show the location on the car.

I have that same exact plug exposed on my 85. Same exact spot. I never traced it to figure out what it belonged to, but never could find anything to plug it in to.

It connects to the outside air temperature sensor used on cars with electronic climate control. See section 1C in the FSM.
