Can anyone tell me where these two wires go to?

The first one has a two pin plug with what looks to be a positive and negative wires going into the plug. Could it be for the fog lights that are not there??


The second one is attached to the alternator and seems to be some type of ground wire.


Thanks in advance

 

Anyone??

 

First one is for the underhood light but second one

 

under hood light and the 2nd one I am not sure...

 

second one is not oem.

 

Thanks guys! The first one was for the under hood light. I thought the bulb was bad but it works nicely. Do these lights turn off when hood is shut? I couldn't find the off switch. I've heard that they stay on sometimes. I ran the plug to the light and left it unplugged. Will plug it in if needed.

Second wire I just took off.

Thanks again!

 

ya the hood light has a ball bearing in it that when open causes a closed loop in the light and when closed it moves off the contacts and shuts off.. the best way to check it is plug it in and close the hood when its dark out and look for a light on the ground under the motor

 

I had a Jeep that did that it looked freaky.... and I couldn't figure it out until it was to late.. oh well

 

Started to close the hood with it on and it turned off about half way down, so it seems to work. Just wondering why the PO unplugged it. Oh well I now have a light but will keep an eye on it.

Thanks

 

most of the time shops unplug it when doing big jobs on the car and forget to plug it back in.... ive done it many times lol

 

So it was you who unplugged mine !!!!

 

jk

 

wheres the inlet for that under hood light at?? my light works when ever it wants and never knew it had a lil plug

 

The second one looks to be a ground for the alternator but not sure. The fog light plug will probably be hiding under the front bumper and have a green and a black wire. The green is hot when the dim headlights are on and the black is ground. These go to a relay mounted next to the radiator on the drivers side, controlled by the dimmer switch.

 

the underhood light plug is on the passenger side of the light
