Since we have had several questions recently about the forward headlight harness. I have a question about the under hood headlight harness.

The sales listing just says headlight. But I believe this also contains HVAC wiring and oil pressure sensor.

For the dash harness they separate between AC and non AC cars. But I think under the hood there is no wiring difference for AC and non AC.it looks like it is the same connector and either the heater control or AC control can turn on the blower. I marked the harness ends in blue.  IMG_20231219_154845281.jpg

I called Lectric Limited to ask if these other circuits are part of the under hood headlight harness.

He said I would have to trace the wires in my car to check.

I told him he did not understand my question. I know my wire includes it. But his listing does not say it. From another seller they did call out the other circuits. But they are $200 more expensive.

He said he did not have enough time to look at the print.

Here is a picture of the under hood headlight harness. IMG_20231219_162135830~2.jpg

Only this connector is the connection to forward headlight harness.

This bundle of about 8 wires I believe is HVAC, pressure Sensor, generator light, and maybe wipers. Without this leg I could not see the justification of the $400 price tag.

Lectric Limited did not have an email on their website.

I went to their Facebook page and they did not have a contact for Facebook messenger.

But I did find an email on their Facebook about page.
