Hi all

I started have a play around at removing my CD player, and when I removed the panel around the gear shifter (with the cup holders) I noticed a nice little white plug that appears to be for some sort of accessory (it's the little plug at the bottom of the picture below)

On both my TH and TJ the plug is there, but not being used

Can anyone point me in the direction of what it might be used for?

i had the same plug floating around and asked the audio shop and they said it was a apart of a hands free kit..

This plug is Gold if your modding stuff.

I used this plug to wire up the 2nd Lighter Socket in the woodgrain console, and to wire up my electric seat.

ahhhhhhhh i NEVER even thought of that!

your a genius!!!!

One of the many good things Mitsubishi did on the TH/KH onwards i think.

Its for a phone kit.

I had a phone kit installed and the installer said, 'what model of Verada is it?' I said KH and he goes, 'you ripper, my job is a whole lot easier now.'

He had a plug that fitted straight into it. Aparently you can easily buy them.

It supplies power and control over the radio when the phone is in use. It mutes the radio automatically and the word TELEPHONE comes up on the radio.

thats some very helpful information, thanx, i might need to use this ploug for something one day

Yup for the mobile phone, but does anyone know where the fuse for it is? I think i may have blown it (got my elec seats in there and they aint moving no more :().

Its actually on my KE aswell.

Anyone know if this is in earlier 3rd gens too (eg TE's)? Cause, as someone said before, that'd make modding in the cabin so much easier

yes it is i was sussing it out the other day wondering what it was, thought i might have had something to do with an auto like if my car was an auto b4 i got it, but nah thats usfull info might hook my neons up to it

Thats interesting. I have a KE which we bough new in DEC 96 and it doesnt have that plug, not that i need it but just had a look to see anyway.

My KE was one of the very last ones made, May 1997, may have something to do with it?

Hmm interesting... I bought a 2nd hand TJ2 Advance and thought the plug was fitted by the previous owner (a glass-mount antenna was already on the car when I bought it) - I didn't realise that there was a mute wire going to the plug as well... might have to connect that one up as well :)
