What is this plug coming from behind the central AC vents?

Hey y'all.

Found this 2 prong plug with a black wire and black wire with white stripe. It leads to somewhere behind the air vents. No good visual, doesn't pull out either. Any idea if it's factory or what it is?

I've been there and never saw such a plug. It looks like standard PC fan plug from old days.

Yea, definitely doesn't look like a factory plug. I'd start tracking down where the wires go.

I guess it's leftover from gauge or turbo timer

Resembles the antenna plug at the base, I forget what the other end looks like but it does run right back there. I cant remember if that harness converts into the normal antenna headunit plug.

OK, was able to track it down after cutting my hands and getting my hands stuck. It goes to an LED on the dash, as an alarm LED I presume. ViciousLSD got it
Does the Evo come factory with an alarm LED on the dash near the defrosters near the windshield?

Nope, for sure aftermarket that had the alarm removed but they left the LED.
