My turn to ask a question, Any idea what this wiring is?

[Jay Herbert]

Ed is again working on the '94 RT/10 Project Viper, and found these four clipped wires and three connectors taped down just as pictured, any idea what they are? I'm thinking the green connectors are seat belt related, and based from his description that one of the connectors may have been clipped from the loose wires, not sure what the blue six wire connector would be for either. Here is what Ed wrote:

Found these (2) plugs at the bottom right side of the passanger compartment. Neither one match the wiring color, or number of wires for the mirror. The blue plug is basically square with6 pins. Immediately to the left is a green ractangular plug with four pins. The lenght that is shown is as far as they go. I am assuming they are for the seat and or seat belts?

The rectangular green plug with the four cut wires was found in the console, laying under the emergency brake handle? This cut plug does fit the rectangle green on on the floor perfectly. ???

The green plugs are for the illuminated mirror; the green one on the right is from the wiring harness while the green one on the left is the "extension cord" that should end at the black plug hanging off the upper windshield frame. If I see the bare wire colors properly, they lead to that black plug. The color codes match sheet SR 40, Wiring Diagrams page 8W-71 of the '94 service manual. It indicates the green plugs have a "right side cowl" location.

Perhaps the mirror you have is not original?

The blue plug (also at "right side cowl" leads the to the right door latch switch in the B-pillar and two passive restraint solenoids that are supposedly in the door. I've had the doors apart before and do not remember these at all (but then I have a Canadian car that didn't come with the roll-up-into-the-door seatbelts, it came with the over-the-shoulder seatbelts.) This is shown on sheet SR 28, page 8W-59. I could be that they are also used as part of the alarm system or to turn on the mirror light when you open the door.
