Demister vent query
#1
#2
Are the wires connected to anything?
The plug is supposed to secure the end of the demister vent to the dash, but not very effectively. When the plug loosens and the vent end springs up, the plug makes an annoying rattle.
Two solutions:
a) Use RTV silicone or the like to 'glue' the vent and end plug to the dash, or
b) Attach a thin wire to the bottom of the plug and tie it off under the dash. Not elegant, but effective.
The wires may be there for this purpose. Just a hunch.

Yes I was trying to fix the popping up vent problem when I see the 2 wiring connections on the plug just wondering what it actually does apart from holding the vent down,the plug is also a semi transparent blue maybe a sensor for something?
