Hello there,

This is my first post to the forum and i'm hoping someone can help me. While installing a reversing camera and parking sensors in my Subaru Impreza 2012, I had to remove the small front right (drivers side) kick panel. While running the reversing camera wire, I found two unconnected wires, one male and one female connector, hanging close together. mauve?/white (male) and black/yellow (female)

(see attached photo) Given their proximity and the fact that they would easily connect together, i'm wondering if they should be connected and have somehow come apart. I'm hoping some kind person with the necessary knowledge or a similar age vehicle can take the time to check and advise me if I should connect them or not.

Thanking You

John Wex

Don't connect them, they're used for programming a new key or fob to your central locking.

Kong is a smart fella with Subaru's, but these connectors have been common for many many years.

If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?
