    Hello, just spent the last few years completely rebuilding a 360, and having a few issues, 1st it was the gearbox not going passed 2nd gear, but we did dyno pulls bypassing it with flipping the paddals forcing a 5-6 gear. I did install a new Speed sensor, now thx alarm is stuck on, with the remote not dis arming it. There's a open white plug behind the TC ecm behind pass seat, is there no home for this plug? Another at mid console, 2 red wires. And the 3rd, up behind the gas pedal, if anyone can help or know what these do, I'd be greatly appreciated.

    Just because a plug isn't plugged in doesn't mean it has somewhere to go. I can't help in identifying the plugs but more then likely is for an option that isn't fitted to your car.

    Thanks, I'm just checking if these might be causing the issues.

    I have a few underneath my seats... As mine are CF racing seats with a 4-point harness, I'm thinking they were for giving juice to seat controls or a way to determine if someone is in a seat (for airbag reason). So perhaps in the third picture seen (because I can see some carpeting), it might be one of these things...

    I wouldn't be surprised if our cars have lots of unnecessary wiring just because it's easier to have them in place for when customers choose to have option A over option B and the like. For the rest, I wouldn't even know what to guess.

    There are likely also empty plugs used for diagnostic purposes to connect equipment to sub-systems.

    This is my guess also...ever seen an SD2? It's an octopus, a lot more than just an OBDII port

    The plug up by the accelerator pedal is supposed to be connected to the clutch switch. This plug isn't used on F1 cars but since all models share the same cable harness some plugs just hang there.

    Basically the same message for the plug you found in the mid console. This one is supposed to connect to the manual gear shift mechanism and is used for rear back up light.

    Have you been able to turn off alarm?
