What is this connector for?

**Bassplayer92** · 05-06-2009, 12:20 PM

I was vacuuming the other day and noticed this connecter underneath my dash on the driver's side. There's nothing hanging around it that isn't plugged in, although I didn't reach up and feel for a stray plug. Does anyone know what this is?

Thanks in advance!

I think it only works at 88 or 66 miles per hour!

Yeah but only if you change your headlight fluid every 5000 miles cuz if you don't your highbeams won't work at 88mph!

I love that movie, and don't feel bad, a few years ago i wouldn't of known either. No car guys in my family.

It's cool, no harm done to this thick skin. I've never had to hook a car up to a computer, but I have done the old "turn the key until the code displays".
