What's this connector for.

When I was installing the fog light I notices right above the main headlight connector on the front of the dash cover there is a square white plug/female that is not connected to anything, what's this for.

BUDS?

The buds is on the left side not this one the one I am asking about in right in the middle just above the main headlight one.

un-switched power source?

That would be my guess, the unswitched accessory circuit, but it is usually tied a bit lower. Need wire colors (and approximate size) to say with certainty.

Will take a photo and post it.

Is this the one that plugs into a empty slot around the top of the trunk area? The same 3 amp one you have to install a fuse if you want to use?:dontknow:

There are two accessory circuits, both 3 amps. Usually the switch circuit is pluged into the accessory 12V outlet in the trunk, and the unswitched circuit is left unused. The switched circuit harness is normally tied near the upper suspension bracket on the left side. The unswitched circuit harness is normally tied in the center, near or to the steering column.

Here is a photo of the connector, it has a purple with orange stripe wire and a black one as well.

That is the unswitched (hot all the time) accessory circuit. The slot in the fusebox for the 3 amp fuse should be empty with the circuit unused.

Thanks Scotty, I was hoping this was it. I have a few led lights I want to turn on when the spyder is not running with a remote switch box and this makes it much easer to connect, wish I could complete the male part of the connector to make it plug-&-play.

You probably can. Check with Powerlet Products. I think they have the matching connector. Probably also available from electronics suppliers. Two separate blade connectors will do it, though, Just tie or loom the wires together and it will be almost as easy as one plug.
