    what are the different cluster connectors?

    I never seen this info anywhere else before.
    The yellow one goes to the OBC (I think)
    the white one, the blue one I don't know, but the weird green one I haven't the slightest idea. The one I pulled from my car didn't have anything connected to it. I pulled one from the JY today and it had something connected to it but I don't know what it was. I wish I could have bought all those pairs of tail lights that were there today, but I already have 2 and have to stick to the budget. Thanks for the input

    The right and left hand connectors have a mix of signals, power, and ground. The bottom middle connector is just for the OBC. Two wires connect to the green connector. One is the speed signal from the differential and the other is speed signal output to the OBC and cruise control.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      The wires that connect to the green connector are a little inconsistent it seems. Any car that has cruise will have one connector there, but some have a second connector, apparently for the speed sensor. Others don't. I haven't really found a pattern for a date split or anything though.

        my car has (had) cruise control and it worked always fine but when I pulled the cluster there wasn't anything connected in the green. But I pulled a cluster the other day and it had 2 separate wires plugged into it (like you mentioned). Weird.
