Default What are these harness connectors for?

I crawl under the drivers side steering column area to unhook the daytime running lights and notice some connections that just don't look right.

The first picture shows two green connectors disconnected and I would think they should be together. What are they for?

It also shows a white connector with no mate. Is this for a sub, or 6 disk changer or something?

Second picture shows a lone white connector. This was more centered and openly available. Is this the OBDII connector?

Thanks.

They're prolly for some options that you don't have. If everything works then don't worry.

The OBDII should have a little door on the dash, by itself, very clean - not a wire hanging under the steering wheel...but I am not sure on your year model

No don't connect the green connectors. Those are preship/diagnostic/troubelshooting mode connectors only. They are supposed to be disconnected under normal use.

The white connector looks slightly like the ABS troubleshooting connector on my '00obw...but yours has three rows. Being an H6 maybe it's the trans TCU connector or something

Hey fnlyfnd, what's up!
