My new WTF is this thread....

Couple of wires with fuses hanging down beside the fuse box on my car. Sure does not look stock, but I could be wrong. Specifically, any idea what they go to? I was thinking it was related to the cooling fan rigs.

Re: My new WTF is this thread....

The one with the red/white wire is supposed to be attached to the side of the fuse panel. It's the LID fuse for the hatch pulldown.

As for the one with the 2 black wires... Do some more poking around and you will probably come up with an aftermarket alarm box or some other aftermarket rigging under the dash.
