    Unknown Connectors

    There are three connectors, 2 white & 1 black, behind the left rear side panel, adjacent the seat. The larger white connector is for the rear window shade mechanism. What are the other 2 for?

    This has been asked before - and Revtor answered it, unfortunately I can't remember what he said!

    You will find extra connectors throughout the car for options available on different Spec'd cars and later cars like side markers, 2nd Alternator etc...

    The Webasto auxiliary engine heater (gas fired) was a Euro option and required electrical connectors to the dedicated pump for it. It also had a dedicated fuel line coming out of the main fuel pump plastic round tank cover. At least one of those connectors might be for that system.
