where they go and what they do!

I have been checking around my engine bay and come across 2 unconnected wire connections and dont know what they do and where the should go, any help appreciated. the first is a black plug in connector with a 2 wires leading to it one is red/blue the other brown, the other is a clear connector with what looks like a cream wire and a brown wire coming from it. I will try and add a couple of pics where I work out how to upload them. Thanks

If you copy and paste the IMG code into your post we will be able to see your pictures without having to open other site, like this……

I belive this is for front fog lights not that they are fitted to your car and I don't think the other end of the wire is even connected to the fuse box so don't worry about it.



At a guess is there are a wire going to the water expantion tank and is there a sensor fitted to it? Early cars dont have this and not sure what year your car is?

2nd plug is brake fluid level sensor, the coolant level sensor is on the engine loom :)
