What is this electric plug ?

By accident I found a plug that is strangely dirty, and that looked corroded. At a place where it does not make any sense since the surroundings are quite okay !

It’s normally attached just below the grey one on top of it :





Somebody know what it is ?

Thank you !

Well, I looked on my 2013 FR-S and that plug is plugged together and affixed underneath that big gray plug.

I have no idea what it does. However, I would suggest you clean it up and plug it back together - and then see what works on your car that didn't before.

I'll ring up ol @soundman98 for you, he knows a lot about electrical stuff.

i don't know what it does, but if it's there, and there's a mating connector, i'd plug it in!

Based on its simplicity, reverse trigger? Just speculation

Looks like it is going to the starter to me. I can't tell if it is corroded or if it has dielectric grease on it.

I already figured it out in the post above yours. It is the starter wire.

I don't care about a manky looking plug, what's with the oil splodge lurking in the background?
