2011 JSW that needs a little attention

[rtking]

Hi everyone, after a long hiatus without a TDI, I've rejoined. I missed my 2011 Jetta (sedan w/DSG) and ended up picking up a 2011 JSW 6MT recently as a project. It needs some attention, but the "bones are good."

One thing I can't figure out are these connectors are wires dangling beneath the car. One orange connector I can't can't seem to figure out where it goes, and a brown and blue wire that appear that they were ripped out of something. Would anyone know where these wires go to?

Thanks in advance for any tips or help!

So.... I think I have an answer in case anyone in the future encounters this. That orange plug goes forward to the rear EGT sensor (Sensor #4). The dangling wires SHOULD have had an orange female connector to receive the EGT sensor connector. OK, now the hunt for an appropriate replacement connector...

And to close out this thread.... the part number for the connector that attaches to the main harness is: 8K0973702C
