    Wiring "challenge"

    In the right front, forward of the fender liner, there is a small harness extension that has three pairs of wires. On goes to the horn, another to the amber "fog light", and a third pair. Mice have been in there. I have all three (now "detached") male plugs. HOWEVER ------------ I am missing a component. The color codes are green/yellow (GN/GE) and green/black (GN/SW).

    I have literally gone page by page in the Bentley manual and came up empty.

    Any wiring savants here that can help?

    I can provide picture evidence of how that happened if folks want to see the mess. The "nest" of oak leaves were SO compacted that when I removed the plastic the "nest" was intact and I had to pull it out.

    I think the third one goes to the exterior temp sensor.

    SOLVED. HOURS of researching, checking, cross checking, and sourcing.

    The missing component on the right side was the ambient air temp for the windshield washer nozzle heater. Found all the part numbers using RealOEM (mainly to cross check the OEM p/n's and some help from Bimmerworld. Parts are coming from ebay and BW. Now I wait a few days for everything to land.
