Where do these connections go and what do they power?
« on: June 11, 2013, 05:34:42 PM »
What do these connections go to?

What do they power up?

These are original connectors and colors.

It's not unusual to find unused wires and connectors under the dash. It depends on the accessories installed when the car was built. I'm guessing what you see are unused wires and connectors. Our Eagle has a couple of unused connectors and wires near the fuse block. :eagle:

AMC/Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental!

Looks like the wires that went to my stock optional gauge cluster.

Hello,
          Thanks for the replies.
My radio works and the gauge cluster works except for the lights on it. I guess I'll just plug them in and see what happens.

The top-left one looks like a pigtail to connect illumination to.

The bottom-right looks like it's a plug that goes into one of the expansion positions on the fuse block to power something: Lighted Vanity Mirror, Heated Rear Window, 4cyl ECM, Cruise Command, or Tachometer.
