    Default misterious plug just hanging loose ?

    hi ,

    ive only had the car a week or two and tonight i was just checking oil level and having a general look around engine bay and noticed a plug just hanging (ie not plugged into anything) there near the front of engine bay just to the right hand side as you look at car from front. there is a plug that looks identical near it thats plugged into something.

    should the hanging plug be plugged into to something ?
    is it for something , maybe to plug diagnostic equip into?

    cant see any empty sockets near by that it could have come from.
    pics included to help.
    car runs fine still, just wondered what it could be.

    any ideas ?

    Wouldn't worry about it. All GM Vec's seem to have various wiring looms with many connectors not plugging into anything. As long as the car has no warning lights you are fine.

    My GSi has at least 4 in the engine bay connecting to nothing.
