I just pulled apart my dash to change the heater core and now i have completely forgot where these two wire ends go to.

Please Help. There are going to be a few more pics of them in successive posts.

So the grey, white, and green wires go to the black connector, and the pink and orange go to the grey connector

Last one. Yes they do come from behind the dash on the passenger side. All of the ECM wires are connected and so are the wires for the little yellow box are connected also.

Thanks for the help.

those would go to the pwr. antanna relay

the pink / orange / black plug into the relay and the green / white and gray run from your antanna to the relay.

No, the power antenna relay is the siver box that he has shown in the picture and the harness is connected to it. I believe that wire goes to the cruise control module. I will have to check my schematics to be sure about that though.

damn, sorry about that. I was just in there this past weekend wiring up a hidden antanna, and I was sure at a glance that these were the wires to / from the relay to the antanna.
Thanks for the catch.

trickster,

after thinking a bit more about your response, I remembered something about this car (its been about two weeks since I have driven it ). The cruise control on it does not work at all. Also, when I took apart the dash, I don't remember any other module that came out of it. The only things I can remember on the passenger side of the car that came out from behind the dash were the antenna relay (funny that it does not have an antenna either), the box you see that has the "FA" letters on it, the yellow box that sits b/t the rear of the dash and the ECM (I hope) and the ECM itself. The center console (w/ the stereo and heater buttons) is out but I don't think that the grey/green/black wires will reach over there. It is possible that those were hanging I didn't pay them enough attention when pulling everything out. But I have nothing else around that they connect to. If they are for the cruise control, then it may be possible that the previous owner had yanked the cruise control module out (the previous owner had done some odd things with this car). Anyway, if they do check out to be to the cruise control then I won't worry too much. I just want to put the dash back together and be done with it so I don't have to take it apart anytime in the near future.

Thanks for your help.
