    High beams not connected and misc connectors not plugged in! (pics inside)

    So the PO told me that the sealed beam "lows" are wired for highs and lows (he didn't do it, so he didn't know why) So when I got the car, that's exactly how it was. The inner "highs" aren't even hooked up!

    So today I finally got a chance to start digging into the wiring and these were all of the connector that were unplugged!! Can anyone help me identify them so I can get this sorted out?

    And I did check out the wiring diagram pdf but it doesn't identify any of the connectors...

    4. DS - This looks like a fuse but it doesn't attach to anything!



    5. PS


    6. PS - This was BARELY connected to green/black wire in picture #4. But not attached to anything!

    Thanks for any help!

    EDIT:
    Ok - from digging a little more I have figured out the lows are duel filament so the highs just aren't working and I'm just seeing the stock lows switching. But I didn't see a pair of connectors to plug into the "highs"...Yeah.....

    Also, #4 looks like it's the resistor for the aux fan. Which then I realized my fan isn't stock! :) Kinda looks like a spal but not sure...

    Here is a pic of my fan:

    Ok - from BFC I found out the grey connectors are for the fogs (which I don't have yet); and the yellow plug is for the obc temp probe so I will ziptie that somewhere away from the motor...

          Thanks guys, I got things semi orginized and plugged in the highbeams; so now when you turn on the headlights all of them come on! Ugh... Also on the cluster, the highbeams light stays on as soon as I turn on the lights.

          No idea why, gotta research it I guess...
