Default What's this connector?
Replaced my drivers side window regulator today, and found this connector inside the door panel, not connected to anything. What's its purpose—is it supposed to be connected to anything? TIA.

I don't think it is—the mirror adjustment works.

My guess would be memory connector for the mirror, I think they had 2 separate connectors on the ones equipped with that.
