What the what? Where do these little guys hook up? The big piece seems like it hooks to the climate temp sensor...? The little white one, dunno!

2 angles show for clarity.

2nd angle.

Also, what the dickens does the little black vac line connect to? He's a bit lonely at the moment. I hope he's supposed to look like that because I don't see anything in the surrounding area to connect to. This black line comes off the transmission vacuum control valve... if it does remain open, is there any reason to keep it? What should the vacuum reading be down at that lower VCV port?

The black vacuum line should be for venting. You want that to stay inside the car.

the lil white one hooks to the ignition switch, it sets off the buzzer if you open the door w/ the key in the ignition.

what are the wire colors on the other???

Thank you sir. I'm so paranoid about loosing vacuum that a vent line just seems really wrong. I guess they knew what they were doing though.

Yeah I looked at the ignition switch and couldn't see a logical spot to hook it. I'll get back to you on the colors of the other.

I looked around on an ignition assemb. today at the PNP and it seems there is a black plastic connector for that little white connector. My ignition assemb. seems to be completely devoid of this black piece! I guess it's not important, but it would feel nice to have it completely functional, ya know?
