Where do these plugs go

[Mr_Dave]

Mate has just sent me this picture asking where these plugs go, if anyone recognizes them?

Believe they're behind the dash as he was replacing a pedal box, thinks they may be airbag as the airbag light now won't go off.

Help appreciated

The airbag wires are much smaller. The light is often turned on when people put the car back together. I think it has to do with the battery, mine was flat when I changed my pedal box.

Not sure what those connectors are from. The top left one might be one for the steering column (into the stalks) but I don't recognise.

the cross one is for a set of cupra 2 gauges

Thanks for the replies.

Any ideas why the handbrake cable might constantly be on?

I would like to re-iterate, it isn't me doing this job

i think the small plug and the blue plug are the rear window heater switch and airbag light but im not sure as it looks like he is by the heater controls

 

[AlpineWhite]

Not sure why you'd be taking things like the heater switch out to do the pedal box though!

Ive got a blue plug like that in mine but its behind the window switches/heater controls. I still havent found out what it could be for.

 

[Mr_Dave]

Took the whole dash out, so I presume everything like that would be disconnected?
Think the only things not working are the fog light telltale, handbrake light and the fact the airbag light is on.. Or at least that's what's been discovered!

Have to just tell him to keep at it, I can't see that there'd be plugs not connected to anything at all, must have missed something!

the blue plug isnt connected in mine (1.9d base spec) but it floats behind the dash

I decided against getting involved, but I know he found guides on SCN!!

The whole dash!! Jesus!!
That sound like a big job.
Looking forward to your fun game of chase the rattle once its all back together

[AlpineWhite]

Just a little OTT, aye.

Blue one is the CD changer cable I think. Not sure about the other 2 though

blue plug = cd changer
small black plug = speaker
silver plug = gauges

Isnt there a little switch at the bottom of the handbrake? Have you checked that is plugged in and working correctly
