    Default Plugs not connected

    Right, as far as i can see theres three that arent connected

    A three pin that matches up with a socket on the speedo drive.

    A two pin that matches with a socket on the gearbox but doesnt reach.

    And a massive three pin that i cant find jack to connect it to.

    Ive got a battery light on, though the alternators good, ive got a brake warning light although all the brakes all good & my reverse light doesnt work (think thats what the plug in the box is for though)

    There might be more, but im not sure. Only found out cause the ****ing speedo drive fell out due to never being bolted down!!

    I think that this:



    Goes into this:



    And that this:



    should be connected to the reversing switch on the box, which if im right is here:



    But then where on earth is this thing meant to connect to??

    I mean its fairly heavy gauge cable so IDK if that could have something to do with the warning lights if its not earthing something its sposed to be.

    1.5TD, im lead to belive its from a corsa after the original engine blew up. Bought the car this way. Got no idea what loom it is, however im guessing corsa as i cant see any reason why there would be a sensor on the speedo drive for a mechanical pump TD with no cruise control
