Name that connector....

Ok, its been a while but its time to show the Z some love again. I have a few projects lined up and one is trying to figure out why my AC fan no worky. While I was testing the relays I came across this connector...





Anyone know off hand if this is supposed to connect to anything? I find it strange that all my other connectors have a cap if not in use but this one is open.

I checked my Z and neither are connected to anything. Mine are capped off with rubber caps. I took the tape off to get a good look at it to make sure, then taped it up with new electrical tape.

Thanks for the pics! Glad it doesn't connect to anything critical. Still curious as to what its for...

NP. I'm curious too, but way too lazy to find it on my own.

I suspect it's so that Nissan can use the same harnesses in other cars. It's probably a sensor or function that the Z32 doesn't have.

Or perhaps is has to do with the headlight washers on Canadian Z's? Either way, it's nor for something USDM Z32 related.

The FSM wiring diagram only shows two "check connectors" in that area of the harness. Being single wire connectors, they don't do much.
