If you have read my other thread on STEAM FROM ENGINE i have another question...

At the front of the engine attatched to the alternator is a BLACK male and female connector, is this meant to be connected or loose, as i may have caaught it whilst i was fitting the new coolant pipe att he back of the engine. You have to press the little lever down to get the male and female to part, cant remember if its meant to be conencted or is used for some fault test etc etc?

Cheers

any clues guys? If not i will have to inspect some of the many scoobys at the staffs meet sunday

 

Adrian go on 22b.com m8 some1 on there will no m8

 

i've got a connector thats not connected.

 

excellent thats what i wanted to know..........

any idea why this is the case?

 

Yep i got the same. Its not connected

 

You might find that it is the connector for AirCon, if you have no Aircon installed the wiring is still there.

P.s. the only connectors for the alternator are the large grey plug and the power lead which is an 'eye' connector.

exactly as rob says.. its for the aircon pump.

 

Just been to a scooby get together and all the ones i saw had the conenctors connected so i might aswell just plug them together. Cars a 97 sti type r and it has air con/climate control.
