Where does this plug go?

[diymirage]

I am gathering parts to add steering wheel controls to my '17 SLT

The harness that came with the buttons was damaged so I bought a new one from Amazon BUT it has one extra plug

I'd like to find out if I need it or not before I tear it all apart

Once installed, it will be in the steering wheel, on the left hand side

(It is the slightly bigger connector circled in red)

It's been years since I did this mod but I believe the two smaller ones are for audio and the larger one circled is for all other buttons.

Thanks, I plugged the old one in and can figure out where all of them go except for the one circled

I'm hoping it may have been for a heated steering wheel and I won't need it, but I'd love to know before I tear into it

I'd hate to have the steering wheel of for a week while I wait on parts

How many pins does that connector have?

It kinda looks like this but I'm not sure if the wire colors match up?

I "think" the up,down, left, right, ok buttons for the EVIC (instrument cluster)

No, that's not it
(I'll grab some picture when I'm home, but I got that one figured out)

I'm going off of the description from the connector repair site too. It's possible I've found the wrong connector for you. The only wire that seems to match there is dark green...

Turns out you were right and I had gotten myself confused

That three wire plug goes to the EVIC controlls

The one I'm ACTUALLY needing to identify is a 2 wire plug, with a green/white wire and a blue/white wire

Looks like heated wheel possibly (no wire colors given)...
