Delica Canada | Mitsubishi Van Club

I'm still getting acquainted with the new Deli. I've been able to find answers to most questions here, but I've found some wiring that I can't figure out. Between the front seats, right behind the shifter, there are a couple connectors, and a black wire that has been cut which looks like a normal two-wire house lamp cord. I removed the disc changer under the passenger seat, took out the seat and looked under the carpet to see where these came from/went to. I couldn't really tell without taking out a bunch of other stuff, but the wires all look factory. Any ideas?

That is aftermarket wiring. Probably the remains of TV/Navigation system that once lived there. Almost looks like a turbo timer harness but that would not be in between the seats !!!

Does anything in the van not work? It's probably nothing.

The Japanese are just as notorious for adding after-market stuff as we are, but before the vehicle is sold for auction, a lot of it gets "removed" (and not necessarily all of it, hence the remnants).

Pretty much everything works, except the rear speakers. Dash lights are dim. But those issues are probably unrelated. Maybe someday I'll just have to trace the wires to see where they go.

I would almost put money on the fact that this harness goes up to either the cigarette lighter or stereo harness and was there for a tv between the seats. It has a permanent live, ignition live and a ground.

Thanks Falco. If the wire that has been cut goes to the flux capacitor, maybe that explains why it stalls every time I try to shift into warp drive.

It won't go into warp until 88 MPH
