I have a shit load of plugs in my engine bay that have been chopped off at one end and aren't connected to anything.

The 2 shown bellow come out of the fuse box.

Has anyone got an idea of where the other end is meant to go.

Car runs fine by the way so they aren't anything major.

Oh

If you want to disable (like WILL NOT start but will crank).

Unplug and take the plug with you :thumbsup:

Unless your thief has one with them (so very unlikely)

tuck it under your fuse box

Best anti theft device (short of them towing it or trailering it) is a simple switch in your fuel pump line. Just run it down near the drivers side kick panel and flick it off when you leave the car. Can crank it for days but will never get any fuel.

Sweet, now we know how to steal your car :P

Go ahead! You I'll need to bring front crossmember, steering rack, tie rods, LCA's, knuckles, struts and wheels. Oh and a trailer to put it on. Probably won't be worth stealing though as the only thing it has in it ATM is a passenger seat! Haha :P

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
