Default Unknown Connector


While pulling my aftermarket head unit I found an unknown, unconnected connector. I have not been able to find where it should be connected. Anyone know?

picture attached . It is the smaller of the two connectors in the picture, on the left. The larger connector is the antenna. The smaller connector does not fit the factory radio that I obtained.

thanks in advance

Possibly the antenna for the NAV part of the OEM radio.

Correct again James, here is a picture of the GPS antenna I used on the Infinity Nav unit.
The one on my Kenwood is the same.
None too sharp but you get the idea.

Thank you . Mystery solved!

just ordered a clarion m505, new rear speakers, and bass blocker for the front speakers. Rear speaker surrounds were rotted. Will rewire as 4 channel

My rear speakers surrounds are rotted also and I'm in the process of adding an amp and a subwoofer. I purchased a repair kit for the rear speakers but later found the motorized seat feature is not working so I am unable to access the rears.

If NEITHER seat does ANYTHING, replace the seat relay under the dash.
