Default Strange loose wire connector by Radio

Hi Guys

Just wondering if someone could tell me what this connector is for?


I have a 2009 V70 SE Lux, it has heated seats but no phone or satnav. While I had the front radio facia off the other day sorting something out I noticed a loose connector block not connected to anything. Can anyone give me a clue as to what that would be for.

I'm hoping someone may say its for a front with a Bluetooth phone

Thanks, Andy

Tell me the connector size (how many pins) and the wire colours per pin.
The photo shows insufficient detail to determine wire colours.

Then I can search through the applicable wiring diagram and tell you what it is for.

Hi, The connector is a flat connector with the pins in a line. There are 5 pins with 4 wires going into it. Looking at it in the photo working from left to right they are.

Pin 1 Empty
Pin 2 Black
Pin 3 Yellow/Brown
Pin 4 Blue/White
Pin 5 Green/Blue


Many Thanks

Hunting through the 2009 wiring diagram I cannot find any 5-pin green connector that makes sense

Nothing at all
Even the wire colours do not match

Are you 100% sure it is MY2009? Maybe it is a 2008 or a 2010 model?

The closest I can think of is for the 4-C suspension control switches, but that should be a 6-pin

I am stumped.

Maybe the Start Control Unit SCU, if you do not have keyless start fitted?

Thanks for looking, the car is a 2007 - 2009 model if it helps.
