silver elec box under centre of dash, tj
« on: April 13, 2012, 12:29:12 PM »

I've just noticed an unconnected plug with an orange and a black wire. It seems to come from a metal box with electrics. Should this be connected and what's the silver box for ? :die:

Orange and black wires in that area should be the dimmer lamp plug for the A/C / Heater controls.

I put A/C / Heater as you will have one or the other. The plug is shown in the wiring diagrams for both heaters. Can't remember what years FSM I checked though.
