That's FN shlt load of rust. Have no idea what that plug does though. Any check engine light?

 

Guys thats his Vtec connector... OP how could you been driving with out it connected!

 

There is no CEL. When I turn on/off the AC I can hear the AC clutch engage/disengage. That that mean the AC is working?

 

And they will - until the blinker fluid runs out, which will happen without warning without the connector attached to the sensor.

 

Found it!

It's something to do with the compressor. IDK if it's a sending unit to check A/C line pressure, or what... but it's definitely for the compressor. Whatever the sensor is, it got broken on yours. I circled it on your original pic:



See where it's broken? The other part of the sensor was taken out of the plug.

Here's what the same place on the compressor looks like on mine:



And here's a very close-up shot of where it goes into the compressor:



Like I said though, I don't really know what that is, or what it's for

If you'd like to double check (though I'm 99% sure this is the mystery connector) the wires going into it are yellow with a green stripe, and white with a purple stripe.

 

wow! thanks a lot! I am going to take these pictures to the dealer and see what they can tell me about this missing/broken part. . .

 

^ $120 Diagnostic fee... lol

 

you need a bolt of lightning

have doc brown setup us the clock tower and accelerate to 88mph for great justice

sure looks like its ac related...maybe it was the anti-rust connector
