What are these wires/connectors?




1982 Camaro, engine is a non original carbureted 350. I’m assuming one of them is for the horn as the wiring to the actual horn was cut off for some reason. I’m also having trouble finding the wiring for the temp sensor. It would be really appreciated if someone could identify these for me.

The two wire plug in the first pic looks like the AC compressor plug if I recall correctly.

Yeah the air condition wiring is all in the car just not hooked up at all. Do you have any idea what that cut green wire is on the first picture?

Re: What are these wires/connectors?

Green wire could be part of the AC wiring, the temp gauge sender (most likely), or another circuit. Hard to tell without tracing it back, or the connector. You could jumper it to ground with a fused jumper wire and see if the temp gauge pegs out. The ones up front look like the cruise control transducer, but it's been 2 years since I was under the hood of an early thirdgen.
