What is this for?

[Bigmo]

My friend just got a new 2018 F3 Limited. Knowing I'm good at electrical work, he asked me to install a couple of LED light. Looking for a convenient place to put a switch, I decided to pop the small round plastic plug to the right of the ignition to install a mini switch thinking that it was just to cover a hole. Surprise. there was a very small plug with wires attached to the back of it. Look like it was doing nothing. Needless to say, I had to find another location for my switch. So, my question is: What is that plug for? Sorry, I didn't think of taking a picture of it.

Might be the hole for the fog lights when installed.

Could be. They may have that pre-wired..

Switching right side of key

It is for fog lights when installed all wiring is ready to go.

I agree 100%.

Fog lights.

There you have it....

I have made a wiring harness a time or two and most who do find it easier in the long run to make one harness for all models and use the plugs and connections as needed. You may find other connectors not going anywhere as well. Not to say you can use it for the lights you are hooking up. Just find the other end where the fog lights go and go from there....:thumbup:

2018 F3 here, if the right plug is for fog lights that I have already installed what is the left plug for? it also has a wiring harness already there.

The left side switch is for heated grips.
