For geeks only / Loose cables & ground connections ;-)

Sounds like you are worried about the grounding wire in picture #5 - that one connects to any of the bolts around the fuel filler. I have taken and attached a photograph to demonstrate for you.

Great !!!

This should be it, I haven't seen this cable attached to that bolt.

Thank you very much.....

So we figured out that a lot of these connectors are for automatic only or diagnostic.
Ground cable found ;-)

Except two cables:

Green connector at drivers footwell Pic 1

Pink/orange Connector at Engine Bay behind the Fuel Distributor and between the bulkhead Pic 3

One guy meant it should be connected to the inlet manifold TT

Chris, could you please try to get pictures of these two connectors ??

I have already yesterday searched for a place where this Pink/orange Connector at Engine Bay could be plugged in,
but didn't found anything.

Thanks in Advance !

Green in the driver footwell is supposed to be disconnected. There were two versions of the wiring harness, one that allowed the brake lights to work all the time and one that only allowed it when the key was on. That spare connector is a leftover and goes nowhere.

The pink/orange connector is for the diagnostic plug, which probably fell off/was removed long ago. It goes nowhere as well, and you can use it for probing the frequency valve dwell if you ever need to.

What do you think about this white connectors on the right side with cable colors red & black ??

Unsure on that one. The connector is the right shape for the frequency valve bulkhead connection under the coil box, but those wire colors don't jive.

You should definitely check out this thread:

Post #6 has bulkhead connector diagrams for the engine compartment.

Sinfully clean!

I think he meant the one in pic #6 goes to the intake manifold.

Right side, top, toward the front of the vehicle... last 10mm headed bolt on right if I remember correctly ;-)

Hello guys,

thank you again to all of you who gave comments about my problems.
All of them are now solved.

Good job !

That prevents static electricity build up. Would not be a good place to have a spark as the filler nozzle came in contact with the metal there.
